RATINGS

92-94The Wine Advocate

...notions of waxy lemon rind, dried white flower, almond paste and wet stones...medium to full-bodied, tangy and incisive, with attractive purity and structural tension, concluding with a long, mineral finish.

91Burghound.com

...deeply pitched nose features aromas of poached plum, dark cherry and a hint of humus-like character...sleek and delicious flavors...

90-92Vinous / IWC

...lively red and black fruit sporting a faint marine influence. The palate is well balanced with fleshy red fruit, quite sumptuous in the mouth with a caressing red cherry and crushed strawberry finish laced with white pepper.

90-91James Suckling

...ripe red cherries and a crisp and lively feel to the finish. Great acidity here. Fresh red fruit to close.

16Jancis Robinson

Sweet red fruit with the herbal freshness of stems. Light, lightly chewy, and beautifully fresh. Chalky, paper-fine tannins. Moreish and mouth-watering.

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.
