"The 2022 Pinot Noir Küstennebel is a blend of Drum Canyon and Sanford & Benedict. Dark and imposing, the 2022 is decidedly virile in bearing, its mid-weight structure notwithstanding. Black cherry, plum, licorice, leather, incense and tobacco add to that impression."

"Lavender aromas make for a floral entry to the nose of this bottling, as black raspberry and cranberry elements bring the fruit. The palate snaps with tart cranberry flavors that are decorated in bergamot and black tea leaf touches, with a deep-seeded acidity ensuring a long life. Drink now-2039. — Matt Kettmann"
