RATINGS

91-93Burghound.com

This sense of elevated ripeness extends as well to the rich, supple and solidly well-concentrated flavors that possess excellent depth before culminating in a spicy, tension-filled and wonderfully long finish.

90-92The Wine Advocate

...boasts good fleshiness and juiciness. This is an up-front, decidedly overt style loaded with blue and black fruit.

90-93Stephen Tanzer

Aromas of boysenberry, licorice and spicy oak, plus an element of animal reduction.

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.
