RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

...expressive bouquet with cranberry, raspberry and briary scents. Hints of damp earth and sous-bois...palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, wonderful backbone and linearity, a sense of precision towards the finish...

92Burghound.com

...subtle application of wood frames the spicy red and dark berry fruit that is liberally laced by notes of earth and game. I very much like the intensity and focused power of the concentrated medium weight flavors that display moderate rusticity and a touch of austerity on the impressively complex and persistent finale.

90+ The Wine Advocate

...forward bouquet with bold red cherries, raspberry and light chocolaty scents...palate is medium-bodied with supple red berry fruit and quite juicy tannin that lend this an appealing fatness in the mouth...

17Jancis Robinson

...concentration of fruit and discernible spice, bitter cherries and relatively firm tannin.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
