Complex aromas of earthy forest floor and sandalwood mingle with a mélange of berries on the nose. These aromas waft from the glass, introducing a sumptuous mouthful with flavors of black cherry, raspberries, dark chocolate, and black pepper on the mid-palate. The finish is supple and salivating with lingering flavors of red fruit and pepper, leaving you wanting another sip.
Critical Acclaim
The 2021 Pinot Noir is dark and brooding, with a dusty blend of dried strawberries, white pepper, and hints of cedar. This flows across the palate with silky textures and ripe red fruits as an acid driven tension mounts toward the close. Chalky mineral tones and touches of lavender resonate as the 2021 finished with staining and long.
Fresh and zesty, with good energy, this red offers bright cherry and cranberry flavors accented by orange peel and spice hints before finishing on a snappy note.
