The 2022 00 Wines Pinot Noir ‘Stardance’ from Yamhill-Carlton displays a medium neon ruby core with a vibrant fluorescent red rim. Sourced from vines planted in 2003, this Pinot’s terroir, rooted in pea vine sedimentary soils, brings a distinct earthy character. After some time to open up, the wine reveals complex aromas of dark cherries, blue plums, Blood orange, pink peppercorn, and dusty herbs, underscored by meaty and damp earth tones. The palate is marked by crunchy tannins, delivering an incredibly fruit-forward finish highlighted by layers of sweet spice and earthy undertones. It’s a wine that marries structure with vibrant fruit, offering a dynamic and evolving earth and spice note on the back of the palate. About 110 cases made. Highly recommended.
Dusty and floral, the 2022 Pinot Noir Stardance opens with a coy blend of flowery underbrush and ashen stone before evolving with notes of lavender, green olive and exotic spice. This is silken and seamless, savory as well, with waves of tart wild berry fruits that swirl across a steady stream of brisk acidity and a saline mineral thrust to punctuate it all. A coating of fine tannins frames the finish but doesn’t get in the way. The Stardance leaves notes of licorice and tart blackberry that keep the mouth watering for more. The 2022 is just a baby today with a bright future ahead of it. Fantastic.
