Kelley Fox Maresh Vineyard Liminal Pinot Noir 2022

“The Maresh bottling is one I feel very deeply entrained with each year, and more so with each vintage. These vines planted on their own roots in 1970. This time spent each year working in these blocks has changed me. I have the utmost love and respect for these plants of great and sometimes mischievous character. Taken from the back label: “The wine from these vines leads me to imagine a beautiful threshold of Earth and stars, and its essence and mystery is this living edge.”

The Maresh Liminal is a medium, youthful and rich blue-red with that is full of light-flickering transparency. It is ethereal and light of being-and beautifully disarming. Of course, the nose is full of Hood strawberries with the cool freshness of rain and the Pacific Ocean in the spring air, along with spices and other delicious notes that are ineffable. This wine has both depth and a soaring nature. The energy is still in the most alive way-and serene. This Liminal has a long, beautiful, silky finish and it’s just the beginning.” - Kelley Fox
