The 2023 Pinot Noir Mimi's Mind has explosive scents of blueberry, pomegranate, forest floor and earthy undertones. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated and perfumed. It’s framed by soft, supple tannins and refreshing acidity and has a long, fragrant finish.

A fragrant red, with tiers of cherry and tart raspberry that take on rose petal, orange peel and crushed stone accents as this builds tension toward sinewy tannins. Drink now through 2035.

Named after Mimi Casteel of Hope Well, the 2023 Pinot Noir Mimi's Mind has a deeper profile and pours a ruby red color. Boasting lush notes of sage, forest earth, black cherries, and wildflowers, it’s a structured red with a medium to full-bodied frame and offers more power in the range while remaining elegant. It has some grip through the finish, but I see this one improving over time and drinking its best over the next 15-20 years.

The 2023 ‘Mimi’s Mind’ is a stunning new edition of this wine that comes from the Lingua Franca Estate vineyard. The tension of this wine is stunning, as this has serious power and concentration, loaded with red and dark fruit flavors with gorgeous red florals. Complex and very nervy, with damp earthy accents, enjoy over the next fifteen plus years to come.
