Estimate
Ripe red berries, licorice, potpourri, vanilla and a hint of woodsmoke on the highly fragrant nose. Pliant black raspberry and cherry cola flavors are braced by a spine of juicy acidity and sharpened by a white pepper nuance. Sappy, penetrating and seamless in texture. The long, gently tannic finish leaves sweet dark berry and floral pastille notes behind.
Textural and spicy, this has a subtle mix of herb, salts, stem, leaf and wild berry flavors...fascinating and complex, with the sort of mystifying sex appeal that only Pinot Noir seems to be capable of.
