Pinot Noir, Resonance, Willamette Valley, OR, 2023

For the 2023 Résonance Willamette Valley Pinot Noir (Oregon), the professional scores are quite strong:

Average of these five scores: 92.0 points.

Bottom line

94 Decanter is the standout, while 92 from Wine Spectator, James Suckling, and Wine Advocate shows unusually consistent critical approval. Vinous is a slightly more restrained 90. Overall, this looks like a very good-to-excellent $30–40 Willamette Valley Pinot, particularly if you favor an elegant, savory, earthy style rather than a heavily fruit-driven one.

One interesting point about the 2023 vintage: Résonance says this was the first vintage of its Willamette Valley bottling made entirely from estate fruit, with 17 months of aging in approximately 30% new French oak.

If you're considering buying it, $30–35 would strike me as a particularly attractive price given the critical consensus.
