2022 Côte Est Pinot Noir

The 2022 Le Cadeau Côte Est Pinot Noir is crafted from fruit grown on the cooler Eastern slope of the vineyard. Always the final blocks to be picked at harvest, the 2022 vintage yeilded fruit with bright red- and blue-fruited notes, accented by a touch of old-world savory notes.

Awarded 92 points by Vinous: "The 2022 Côte Est lifts from the glass with a blend of dusty rose, crushed ashen stones and dried black cherries. This is soothingly round and ripe in character, with juicy acidity to balance and a core of ripe wild berry fruits that swirl throughout. A web of grippy tannins wraps the palate in youthful poise as hints of licorice linger and a bump of residual acidity maintains a lovely freshness."
