Purple Hands Freedom Hill Pinot Noir 2023
94 points Wine Advocate
Initial wafts of iron and flint on the nose of the 2023 Pinot Noir Freedom Hill Vineyard give way to pure scents of cranberry, pomegranate, violet and orange peel, and it continues to reveal additional nuances as it spends time in the glass. Full-bodied, it floods the mouth with dark, perfumed fruit. It’s structured by chalky tannins and mouthwatering acidity, and it has a long, sapid finish. It should be long lived in the cellar.

Crushed ashen stone mingles with savory herbs, a dusting of cocoa and dried black cherries as the 2023 Pinot Noir Freedom Hill Vineyard evolves in the glass. Silken in feel, it glides across the palate with ease, displaying polished wild berry fruit offset by a hint of citrus and sage. The 2023 Pinot Noir shows an exotic character and finishes perfumed and spicy, leaving a nuanced web of fine tannins that frame the experience well.
