RATINGS

90Stephen Tanzer

Sweet red cherry dominates the nose. Then a bit darker on the palate, conveying a juicy, crunchy character to the flavors of black cherry, menthol and minerals. Sweet but firm wine with no greenness or hardness. Finishes with ripe tannins and noteworthy persistence.

90-92Burghound.com

An ultra-elegant nose offers up notes of essence of both red and dark pinot fruit with lovely background nuances of spice, floral and wet stone. There is a cool and restrained mouth feel to the beautifully well-detailed medium-bodied flavors where the sense of refinement continues onto the impeccably well-balanced and persistent finale.

89-91The Wine Advocate

The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berries, quite thick and assertive tannins, but sufficient fruit on the structured finish to keep everything nicely balanced.

17.5Jancis Robinson

Fine, polished nose. Racy and lovely cherry charming fruit and really racy and well sculpted. Really fine with masses of fruit. Great stuff. Long and flirtatious. Long.

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.
