Restrained fruit evident in background. Medium bodied and well balanced offering hints of subtle earthy component. Drinking very well.

Vivid Ruby with red berry aromas and noticeable integrated spice. The palate put forth big flavors of cherry, raspberry, and sweet vanilla spice adding some cinnamon notes. Lively acidity, well balanced, gentle tannins lingering with bits of minerality.

Improved from 7 months ago. Well balanced between dark fruits and earthiness. Silky smooth at this stage.

Always a fan of this pinot. Balanced, not overly fruity and has some burgundian characteristics.
