Tasting notes
Only released to Drouhin’s wine club, the 2023 Pinot Noir Origine 36 has a youthful ruby hue and expressive notes of wild raspberries, hints of cedar, incense, forest herbs, and wildflowers. Medium-bodied, it expands on the palate, with lush, ripe tannins that fill the palate and an even and savory hint of umami richness underlying hints of truffle that will emerge over time. Drink 2026-2040. It's a lot of wine for $55.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills has alluring aromas of red cherry, orange peel, damp earth, mushroom and slowly emerging spicy undertones. The medium-bodied palate offers highly concentrated, layered flavors. It’s structured by velvety tannins and bright acidity and has a long, spicy finish. 14,449 cases produced.
A bright red color, the 2023 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills is approachable and inviting, with notes of wild roses, cranberries, elegant spices, and a snappy lift of crushed stones. Medium-bodied, it has a lovely chalky texture, balanced acidity, and a clean, balanced length. It’s drinking well now but should also hold up over the coming 6-7 years.
A deep, serious and structured wine that’s quietly powerful and age-worthy at a reasonable price. Tightly woven tannins, black fruit, bracing acidity and an elegant mouthfeel. Reserved in a good way, it is drinkable now but best from 2028.
