Description
The 2023 vintage is exceptional with harvest starting on August 24th marking the start ofanother record-breaking season. The year began withabove-average rainfall and below-average temperatures, which delayedthe harvest past the early-August norm of previous years. A mild springand summer allowed for extended hang time, contributing to theexceptional quality of the fruit. Despite a late start, the cooler weathercontinued, providing ideal conditions for the grapes to achieve properbalance and brix. The harvest extended well into fall, with some frostconcerns due to cool nights. However, the overall wet and cool weatherled to a harvest that is predicted to be outstanding in both quality andquantity. The 2023 vintage will be one of the finest in years, producingwines with beautiful flavors, vibrant acidity and remarkable balance.
Brilliant crimson in color, Raeburn Sonoma County Pinot Noir leads with pleasing aromas of berry pie, lavender and vanilla. The palate is marked with fresh fruit flavors of lush wild blueberry, raspberry, and cherry with undertones of roasted hazelnut. The finish is graceful and sophisticated.
