Dark aromas of roasted plum, nutmeg, mace and charred fennel make for a rich, heady nose on this top-end bottling from the historic regional producer. The palate is unabashed and hearty, with sharp sumac and sandalwood spice notes giving depth to the plum and mulberry core.
...highly fragrant bouquet evokes ripe red berries, incense and candied flowers, and a smoky mineral accent... Lively and penetrating on the palate, offering intense cherry cola and raspberry flavors accented by an exotic spice nuance. Fine-grained and precise, with excellent finishing clarity, resonating spiciness and subtle, well-judged tannins.
A rich pinot with ripe cherries, grilled plums, chocolate orange, mocha, smoke and undergrowth on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with sleek tannins and bright acidity. Ripe and spicy, yet taut and structured, too. Flavorful and concentrated with excellent length.
...pure, exotic bouquet of both ripe raspberry, blueberries, spring flowers, and incense...carries to a lifted, pretty, complex Pinot Noir with terrific purity of fruit, supple tannins, and no hard edges.
...has scents of cranberries, blackberries, aniseed, charcuterie and underbrush...medium-bodied palate has a core of earth-laced fruits, juicy acidity and a spicy finish.
