A smooth, suave and spicy wine that is made from the wine estate’s original vineyard. It’s spicy but balanced, offering tangy red cherry, pure black cherry, cinnamon, clove and toast flavors. There’s a flash of new oak, 20%, but carried by wonderful, lively fruit and savory accents from the vineyard. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now or hold. Jim Gordon Executive Editor

Displaying a bright red color, the 2023 Pinot Noir The Beaux Frères Vineyard is layered and boasts a deeper aromatic profile. A consistent wine year after year, the aromatics are exceptional in this vintage, with notes of ripe cherries, crushed flowers, and woodsy, mossy earth. (It smells like walking into a spring forest.) The palate, which has a light salty flourish, offers incredible balance between its energy, structure, and ripeness. It never has astringency, and its excellent energy adds a pleasing level of structure to the wine. Drink 2025-2045.

Impeccably structured and rich yet gracefully layered, with lilting raspberry and cherry flavors highlighted by forest floor, savory spices and rose petal as this builds depth and tension toward polished tannins. Drink now through 2035. 2,886 cases made.

A sense of austerity from the aromatics (bottled in December of 2024), dark fruits, and plenty of earth character- this wine is tight and structured. This is the estate's signature vineyard, which was once a plum orchard. This site is a mix of own-rooted vines and grafted Dijon clones, the oldest of which are 34. This wine combines elegance and depth of complexity to a tee. The aromatics show fir tips, sous bois and sweet ripe berry. There is a savoury core to the palate, pine sap and ripe berries are well embraced by an elegant texture.

(94+ points) The 2023 Pinot Noir The Beaux Frères Vineyard has layered aromas of cranberry, blackberry, bitters, mossy bark and holiday spice. The medium-bodied palate is elegantly styled with concentrated, detailed, spicy flavors. It’s framed by silky tannins and juicy acidity and has a long, spicy finish. It transforms dramatically with air and should be long lived in the cellar.- EB

A cascade of dried flowers, crushed rocks and dusty sage gives way to dried strawberries as the remarkably pretty 2023 Pinot Noir The Beaux Frères Vineyard blossoms in the glass. Elegant and cool-toned in feel, it offers silken textures and depths of ripe, mineral-inflected red berry fruits that slowly saturate toward the close. Fine-grained tannins add a lovely framework as the 2023 Pinot Noir finishes with excellent length and an air of violet inner florals. What a beautiful wine. It displays the ripeness of the vintage in a perfectly balanced way. - Eric Guido, July 2025
