A touch more saturated red in color, the 2023 Pinot Noir Laurène is deeper and more layered in the glass, with notes of pine, sage, ripe cherries, fresh leather, and pressed floral perfume. It has a refined and plush texture, with ripe tannins and elegant notes of dark earth. Drink 2025-2040.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Laurène has dramatically opening scents of black cherry, blueberry, tobacco, damp earth and garrigue. The medium-bodied palate is powerfully styled, matching concentrated, nuanced flavors with seamlessly integrated oak spice. It’s structured by velvety tannins and mouthwatering acidity and has a long, latent finish. It will benefit from time in the cellar. 3,725 cases produced.
The 2023 Pinot Noir Laurène is darkly floral, with a coy mix of dusty lavender and violets complementing dried black cherries. A round and supple persona soothes as ripe wild berry fruits wash across a stream of cool-toned acidity. Stainingly long, the finish boasts a pleasant black-tea-like bitterness that tugs at the cheeks. Classic to the core.
