"Medium ruby; attractive, deep, ripe, intense, black cherry and blackberry fruit aroma with hints of mocha, damp earth, and baking spices; medium-full body; tight, textured, concentrated, savory, red and black fruit flavors with oaky undertones, and lots of richness in the mouthfeel; medium-full tannin; lingering aftertaste. A relatively big, strong shouldered Pinot that has the balance and structure to benefit from three to five more years of bottle aging. Very highly recommended."
