2023 Wayfarer Pinot Noir Wayfarer Vineyard Fort Ross Seaview Sonoma

Wayfarer’s flagship Pinot Noir encapsulates the truest representation of our estate vineyard each vintage, a wine that can only be from one place in the world.  Our ten Pinot Noir clonal selections are planted in individual blocks on both east and west facing slopes, providing myriad expressions of clone, aspect, elevation and microclimate to reveal the complex character of our exceptional vineyard.

The 2023 Pinot Noir ‘The Estate’ flaunts a vibrant ruby hue in the glass. Expressive, layered aromatics evoke alpine strawberry, black raspberry, crushed rose petal, green cardamom, pomegranate and fresh sage. The seamless pure fruit character is framed with firm but finely textured tannin and elevated with a fresh backbone of acidity. While drinking beautifully now, this vintage will continue to develop nuance and complexity in bottle for the next decade.
