From the remote area of Annapolis, the 2022 Pinot Noir Goldrock Estate pours a youthful magenta hue and is a bit more reserved, but as it begins to open in the glass, it reveals notes of bright mixed berries, wild raspberries, blood orange, and dusty earth. Medium-bodied, it’s bright and mouthwatering on the palate, with a juicy feel to flesh out the midpalate and a lovely, sanguine, salty finish. It’s going to be a fantastic, savory wine to drink over the coming 10-15 years.
Lots of pretty ripe strawberries and cherries with hints of cedar and spices. It’s medium- to full-bodied with hints of dried fruit and a juicy finish. Moss and oyster undertones. Drink or hold.
The 2022 Pinot Noir Goldrock Estate, matured in around 33% new French oak, has a deep well of aromas: pomegranate is accented by tones of charcuterie, fennel seed, allspice and Angostura bitters. The medium-bodied palate is silky and refreshing with detailed, layered flavors and a long, ethereal finish. It’s drinking beautifully straight from the bottle.
