Such a pleasant surprise! Great bargain here and very cool - Alsacian Pinot! My first. Earthy notes waft out of the glass along with some cherries. Great structure, medium tannins, beautiful mouthfeel. Love the earthy flavors of mushroom, baking spices, and mineral mixed with cherry and plum. Great finish.

Really great fruit purity. Definitely young but damp earth, cherry and cured meat were well defined. Palate was elegant and toned. 4-5 years would do this well.

Even in its youth this wine shows a ton of depth. Tart cherry, sweet strawberry, dried shrooms, salted meat.

Someone tricked us in a blind tasting! New world candied red fruit/Jolly rancher nose w lots of ultra bright fruit, but abundant herbal notes of juniper and anise. Palate is bursting w pomegranate. Lovely.
