Wine Review: This clear and light ruby colored Pinot Noir from Saxon Brown opens with a loam and strawberry bouquet with hints of pomegranate, cinnamon, and red plum. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, fresh, zesty, and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a black plum and black pepper blend with notes of loam and dried strawberry. We also detected hints of red raspberry, stony minerality, and tobacco. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and moderate tannins drift away nicely. We would pair this Pinot with Colorado lamb lollipops. Enjoy - KWGTP
Winemaker Notes: Our 2023 Fighting Brothers Pinot Noir exhibits the harmonious balance of concentrated fruit and bright acidity we strive for with this proprietary blend. Lively aromas of fresh florals, Bing cherry and dried rose petals give way to rich notes of ripe plum, dark chocolate and sweet vanilla that persist on the expansive palate. A beautiful sum of its parts, this premier vineyard blend offers complexity, elegance, and a long, nuanced finish.
