Clear, dark ruby. Nose of black cherry. Medium-bodied palate of black cherry and black tea. Medium plus acidity and medium minus tannins, mostly on the finish. A classic French expression of Pinot Noir built to accompany a wide range of foods, but still satisfy on its own. Drink now with your favorite meal.

Tried the ‘17. Interesting French Pinot, but had too much spice as the ‘16 did. Fruit on nose and palate, tad acidic, fine tannins, crisp quality, medium ending with a jolt of pepper spice. Ok, but I Pass on this one. Tasting Sample.

Clear translucent medium Ruby color and light bodied with high acid. Clean medium intensity nose with notes of red cherry and blueberry and a faint hint of earth. Blueberry and red cherry on the palate leading to a smooth finish with light tannins. Delicious and great value. Paired very well with our Herbs de Provence marinated roast chicken.

Okay. A little on the sour side. Would drink if it was there. Wouldn't buy it by choice

Sweet strawberry and cherry. Very light and refreshing. Good to drink by itself in the spring and summer. It might be a little too sweet for my tastes.

Beautiful color in glass. Fresh raspberry nose. Bright and tart. Quick finish. Great for any dinner at home. Would definitely have again.

Lovely easy drinking, fruity take on Pinot. Cherry, smoke, wild strawberry, a hint of leather. Very low tanning, medium acidity. A thanksgiving crowd pleaser
