The 2024 Block 3 Pinot Noir is aromatic, juicy, fine and layered with savory/spicy tannins and dark black fruit. There are notes of black cherry, dark chocolate, raspberry seed, licorice, new leather, blood orange and coffee grounds. I like the lacy finesse of this wine, partnered as it is with the powerfully driven 2024 fruit. This is excellent. 13.9% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate
