A brilliant ruby, Beringer’s 2023 Carneros Pinot Noir reflects the intrinsic elegance and complexity that distinguishes fruit from this cool growing region. Aromatically, this wine expresses vibrant red fruit characters of cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate, punctuated with spice and herb notes of white pepper, anise, and a whiff of cured black tea leaves. On the palate, flavors of black cherry, plum, and a graphite minerality emerge, nicely complementing the wine’s profile of balanced acidity and modest tannins to culminate in a long, sensuous fruit finish.
