This is a Goldilocks porridge wine where everything from the lemony acidity to the sturdy tannins was "just right." It is medium- bodied fare, with blackberry, Thai basil and orange-zest flavors. Violet and cinnamon-stick aromas blend harmoniously with notes of dark raspberries and blueberry fruit leather. It is a stunning value.

The woodland-inspired 2022 Pinot Noir Roserock wafts up with peppery herbs, florals, woodland berries and hints of clove. This flaws across the palate with supple textures and vividly ripe wild berries, all balanced by a core of vibrant acidity. It taper off with medium length and perfumed, leaving a gentle mineral tinge and inner roses. The Roserock is a finessed beauty.
