2023 Flowers Vineyard Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

“The 2023 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast is a medium ruby color and is fresh on the nose with notes of lifted spice, compact red berries, Bing cherries, roses, and sweet herbs. The palate is medium-bodied, with a polished and fine texture, a silky feel, and clean elegance through the finish. It’s a lovely and charming Pinot Noir with a lot of finesse to drink over the coming 8-10 years. Maturity: 2025 – 2035” – Audrey Frick Review Date: July 2025

“It's one of the first 2023 Sonoma pinots to be released and a great reflection of the long, cool growing season. Tangy, fresh and well balanced, with intricate orange zest, cinnamon, red cherry and black tea flavors on a vibrant, acid-driven texture. Medium- to full-bodied. Drink or hold” – Jim Gordon Review Date: October 2024

“The 2023 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) is another terrific wine from Flowers. Bright, aromatic and lifted, it offers up an exotic mélange of crushed red berry fruit, cedar, cinnamon, pipe tobacco and dried herbs. Strong floral and savory inflections lend energy throughout. The 2023 is light on its feet and quite delicate, not to mention long on personality. Drinking Window: 2025 – 2033” – Antonio Galloni Review Date: January 2025

“This aromatic and savory wine brings aromas of roasted shiitake, black plum and clove on the nose. The palate shows spicy energy and flavors of blackberry, plum skin, sweet cinnamon and forest floor across a long, meandering finish.” – Tom Capo Review Date: April 2025
