Aetheric and floral, the ultimate essence of light sour cherry.
This is so pure & drinkable that it (almost) robs itself of seriousness.
Light & pure, cherries & cherries again with floral notes and a spicy undertone.
Light yet present on the palate. Sappy, juicy, so highly drinkable.
This is delicious, Barolo meets Chambolle-Musigny. For a fraction of the price.

Deep Ruby color with a bouquet of fruit, earthy herbs, tobacco and floral notes. On the palate flavors of sour cherry and raspberry with notes of herb pepper, floral and earthy notes. Medium+ finish, good balance with fine tannins ending with cacao, tobacco, fruit and earthy nutty notes. — 2 months ago
Absolutely excellent. Aromatics actually faded a bit with a 1.5 hour decant, so might watch that in the future. Lots of earthy cherry. Not overly refined, but in a good way - tastes like the older school piemonte that it is, with just the right bit of earth and leather. Excellent acid and a long pure finish. Great pairing with Kinderhook pork chops with a porchetta style seasoning. — 16 days ago
The Antica Terra Botanica Pinot Noir has concentrated notes of black cherry compote, mulberry, wild strawberry, violet, blood orange peel, crushed stone, tarragon leaves, cacao nibs, & clove with fine, polished tannins, lifted acidity, balance; an elegant wine that’s light on its feet with depth of character, projecting a quiet strength. — 3 months ago
