Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Antonio Galloni
An elegant, luxurious wine, the 2023 Pinot Noir Highland Divide immediately announces an important vintage at DuMOL. Crushed red/purplish berries, cinnamon, mint and orange peel are beautifully laced together in the glass. The 2023 is fabulous. Vineyard sites are Estate, MacIntyre and Bressay, all of which are densely planted ranches.
