Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berries and floral spices. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cherry with licorice, floral, pepper and oak. Fine tannins, medium+ finish, lively acidity, good structure, ending with fruit, pepper and earthy spice.

Pushing the overripe-ness a little much. This could be meomis little cousin. Fair forward, glycerin-y, some residual sugar.

This is one of those beefy, velvety pinots that has a richer, fuller body than most. Because of that, I really like it. If you like soft lush wines, you will too. This is a nice wine.
