Tasting notes
The 2022 Flying Pig is impossible to ignore, bursting from the glass with savory notes of flinty stone, grilled herbs, incense, tobacco and wild blueberries. It is silken in feel with juicy acidity and masses of red and blue fruits that envelop the palate, leaving a sensation of mineral-liquid stone. Violets mix with a tart blackberry tinge as edgy tannins resonate through the long and structured yet remarkably fresh finish. This is one of the most balanced and complex vintages of Flying Pig that I have yet tasted. Beautiful stuff.

A Bordeaux blend that varies by vintage, the 2022 Flying Pig is 48% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Franc, and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon, with only 253 cases made. Evoking Right Bank character in its perfumed aromas and lifted acidity, the tannins are indeed supple and seamless along the medium-bodied palate. A fruit core of deep, rich dark berry and plum are complemented by cedar, lavender, and dried herb. Drink now and for the next 15-20 years.
