An amazingly complex dynamic wine that demands your attention from the first sniff to the lingering finish. Aromas of redwood forest rosemary purple flowers and black cherries then black tea pomegranate dark cherry dried raspberry and wild mushroom flavors. Fine-grained moderate tannins and crunchy acidity give it such a firm backbone. Drink now or hold. Jim Gordon Executive Editor
The 2023 Pinot Noir Royal St. Robert is redolent of floral savory and citrus notes. I find it especially brilliant and crystalline. At the same time the 2023 is pretty tightly wound. Rose petal iron tea leaves incense and dried herbs open nicely with some coaxing The colder growing season brings out the slightly gamier wilder side of Pinot Noir along with plenty of brightening acidity in this mid-weight taut Pinot from Raen. I would give this a year or two in bottle at a minimum. - By Antonio Galloni on January 2025
