93 Points - Tasting Panel:  Over 12 clones were chosen for this savory yet lighthearted Pinot Noir aged nine months in French oak. Wild strawberry, Luxardo cherry, and cola merge with prized flavors of sweet tobacco and red licorice in conjunction with searing acidity. Notes of Italian herbs accelerate on the midpalate, finishing with dark plum plus exotic spices and flowers.

92 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:  The 2023 Pinot Noir Twelve Clones is a wine of finesse and understated power, 65% of the grapes coming from the estate Double L Vineyard, with the rest filled out by fruit from KW, Highlands, Boekenoogen, and Tondre, a mix of 12 unique clones. Medium-bodied, it offers flavors of cherry, cola, and clove, with a thread of acidity throughout. The oak is integrated and subtle, only 38% of it new, allowing the silky texture to speak.
