Fans of the brisk and frisky side of Pinot Noir, rally around Winderlea's take on Shea Vineyard fruit. The wine's smoked raspberry aroma is a perfect match for a scent of sugar cookies made with dried cherries. Zingy acidity then lights up blackcap raspberry, rosemary and black tea flavors. The mouthfeel almost feels electrically charged.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard brings the taster down to the earth with notes of flowery underbrush and ashen stones giving way to dried strawberries. This opens with silken textures yet quickly gains in tension as wild berry fruits and saline minerals slowly saturate. It finishes with admirable length and potency, leaving a cascade of violet and lavender over a tinge of sweet spice. Lovely.
