Estimate
...fresher, more edgy texture to go with a medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated style on the palate...beautiful notes of black raspberries, wild strawberries, violets, sappy herbs, and a touch of forest floor.
...classically styled with crunchy berry fruits and signature Pinot Noir bitterness. Cranberry sauce and crushed black cherries are accented by violet, burnt citrus, scorched earth and tobacco leaves...medium-bodied palate carries its appealing bitters-like flavor layers in a silky, fresh frame, and it finishes long and uplifted. What a lovely, super fresh expression this vintage.
Refined and elegant, with a lithe, creamy texture to the dried red fruit and berry flavors, lengthening out with forest floor notes. The fine-grained, minerally finish shows leafy accents and hints of sandalwood.
...bold and sumptuous in the glass, with soft curves and pretty floral/savory overtones that add dimension...especially dark, powerful Pinot, but all the elements are wonderfully fused together. Spice, floral and earthy notes lead into the rich, potent finish.
