Hundred Suns Carson Phillips Pinot Noir 2023
93 points Vinous Media
The 2023 Pinot Noir Carson Phillips is darkly floral, mixing a hint of licorice and spice with crushed violets and blackberries. Elegant in style, it offers juicy acidity and crisp mineral tones that add depth to its ripe red berry fruit. A bitter twang lingers, forcing the mouth to water as a note of citrus fades over a bed of subtly grippy tannins.
94 points Wine Advocate
The 2023 Pinot Noir Carson Phillips Vineyard comes from vines planted in 2000 in volcanic soils. Fermented with 25% whole clusters and matured for 11 months in 10% new oak, it has layered aromas of red cherry, blackberry, blood orange, conifer and incense. Medium-bodied, it floods the mouth with bright, sapid flavors. It’s structured by fine, chalky tannins, and its bright, mouthwatering acidity calls you back for another sip. 165 cases were made.
