The 2023 Pinot Noir Running Fence Vineyard Cuvée Catherine unfurls its detailed aromas slowly, segueing dramatically from cranberry and pomegranate to mixed tea leaves, orange peel, Angostura bitters, woodsmoke and saline. The medium-bodied palate is more open at this stage, offering concentrated, complex flavors. It has a luxurious, suede-like texture, tense and structuring acidity and a very long, nuanced finish. It gets better and better with air and should be long lived in the cellar. 96+ (EB)

The 2023 Pinot Noir Running Fence Vineyard Cuvée Catherine is sourced from the first 14-acre parcel that the Kistlers planted here in 2012. Brisk and finely cut, the 2023 is a wine of tension and energy. The personality of the cold year and the Bodega Highlands vineyard's slightly higher yields come through in the wine's ethereal, lifted profile. Dark-toned fruit, lavender, menthol, licorice and pomegranate build nicely. Clean savory and mineral accents punctuate the svelte finish. (AG)
