2023 Holloran Pinot Noir Sans Coleur
Tasting notes
Aromas of orange blossom & citrus rise from the glass on initial swirling. The mid-palate shows a mix of honeydew melon and blood orange, with nice richness and depth from the barrel. A long, focused follows, with hints of orange and lovely structure.
Enjoy it as an aperitif, with crudité and your favorite dips, or try with Citrus Marinated Pork Chops.
Drink 2025-2030.

The 2023 growing season had a very late budbreak, followed by very warm sunny weather in May & June that ‘caught up’ vine growth prior to flowering. After a consistent, warm July & August, we picked the Pinot Noir used to make this wine mid september, then pressed gently and slowly and fermented it in neutral French Oak barrels, allowing MLF to occur.
