RATINGS

94-96The Wine Advocate

The palate is medium-bodied, with layers of raspberry coulis and crushed strawberry laced with tobacco and a touch of spice, fanning out gloriously but with style on the finish.

92Wine Spectator

A supple, charming red, smoky and spicy, with black cherry and black currant flavors. Intense and balanced, but also firm enough to develop. Turns compact on the smoky finish.

91-94Burghound.com

A background application of wood surrounds the cool and airy aromas of dark cherry, plum, earth and a whisper of the sauvage.

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.
