This is a wonderful expression of Pinot Noir, coming from this area. Offers distinctive aromas of raspberries, dried strawberries, backing spices and violets in a lovely coat of mocha, sweet vanilla and a splash of bacon fat resting on the plush, silky finish.
The red fruit brightens across the palate, picking up raspberry and spice are balanced by the French toasted oak aromas. Soft
and silky through the middle, this wine crescendo on the finish leaves a juicy memory in the mouth, with proper acidity and a
pleasant mouth-feel.
