Pinot Noir Dundee Hills 2023 Arterberry Maresh

Professional reviews

Winespectator (93)

Dynamic yet sleek, with brisk acidity framed by vibrant cherry, cranberry, green tea and dusky spice flavors that zip along the snappy finish.

James Suckling (94)

Wild and expressive, bursting with crushed berries, orange peel, flowers and exotic spices, with touches of chili and iodine adding depth. Tense and structured, yet incredibly fresh and crunchy, with a vibrant, spiced energy. The mid-palate lingers with bright citrus and mineral nuances, leading to an elegant finish. Firm tannins add definition and frame.

Vinous (93)

The 2023 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills excites the senses with a burst of dusty rose and autumnal spices that complement wild strawberries. Juicy to the core yet refined, it reveals depths of crisp minerality and bright red berry fruits that cascade across the palate. The finish tapers to a tart cranberry resonance that pinches at the cheeks as violet inner florals fade.

Decanter (94)

Fully destemmed from a mix of younger and older vines throughout the various estate Maresh Dundee Hills holdings. This is a savoury, autumnal wine, with forest berries, dried leaves and dark violet flourishes on the nose. The palate offers a dizzying complexity for a very reasonable price. Smoky soy, a squeeze of blood orange and salty, umami layers that finish with salty notes of soy and mushroom.
