2022 Pinot Noir BoVine Vineyard
An enticing perfume of blackberry cherry, and spice introduces the wine. A fresh burst of blueberry, blackberry, plum and spice flavors are balanced by supple, balanced tannins. Vibrant, layered and deep, it finishes with 5-spice, plum, and bramble notes.
Tasting notes
This wine shows the streak of plum and bramble flavors characteristic of tiny Bovine Vineyard. It is unusual to find a small vineyard whose grapes are good enough on their own to produce a polished, complete wine – Bovine Vineyard is a delightful example. GREAT VALUE.

James Suckling 92 Points
"Fresh and attractive violets on the nose here with a supple and juicy array of very fresh red cherries that flow to the palate, where they are delivered amid succulent, upbeat tannins. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
Prince of Pinot 92 Points
"Moderate garnet color in the glass. Freshness is the word for this wine. Aromas of raspberry, earthy flora and spice with a complimentary hint of oak. Striking attack of Bing cherry, raspberry and baking spice flavors with a subtle oak backwash. An exquisitely balanced wine that is ready out of the gate."
