RATINGS

19Jancis Robinson

Compressed, sweet fruit with a lot of generous oak spice. Wonderfully layered tannin – extremely fine, yet very persistent. Finishes with a long, symphonic persistence.

93Vinous / IWC

Flavors of dark berry fruit, brown spices and a touch of soy...palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, offering assertive structure and impressive weight and concentration - almost Bordeaux-like toward the finish.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand 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.
