ORW Old Soul Pinot Noir ‘23

A village wine that rivals Grand Crus. Deep ruby with a nose of black cherry, rosewater, and crushed gravel. The palate is silky and profound, with flavors of wild strawberry, black tea, and tannins like cashmere. Wine Advocate (93 pts) credits Bizot's 100% whole clusters and zero new oak. The 2020 vintage (harvested September 1st) is drinking beautifully now–2035. Pair with duck breast with turnips. 125 cases made.
