The 2023 Pinot Noir Vespidae is dusty and floral, yet coy, with crushed rocks and dried strawberry tones wafting up from the glass. It is silken in feel and offers pliant red berry fruits and cooling acidity as a saturation of primary concentration mounts toward the close. Gently tannic yet fresh, it finishes with admirable length and floral persistence. Have patience with the Vespidae.
