Beneduce Vineyards Pinot Noir 2022 Review
Mike Beneduce is like many kids of Italian descent from New Jersey. Generations of farmers, in his family's case, roses for the markets, farming the lands beyond the Garden State's urban eastern crust. And like many families from Italy, they made homemade wine. This is Mike's DNA. Oh, and he's also a big Pinot Noir head. And that shows. He has a small library of vintages made from New Jersey land, and this vintage just took us out: savory cherry liqueur on the nose, with some espresso. The palate is even and soft with excellent fruit and acid.
