The perfect perfume from a hybrid of flower and fungi. A strawberry cyborg with meaty core. Stones comprised of smoky dust. These embody the dichotomies of good Pinot. In it come together the disparate physics of the ethereal. There is citrus in the red plum and guava. Copper in the pine bark. Icebergs in the sweltering river. The body is nuanced, quick as live blood, with mineral weight. Cranberry with mint that turns to thyme, to orange, to feldspar. Star anise that becomes a tart strawberry and raspberry interplay. This is a beauty playing the perfect hostess to terroir and desire. A fine bedside wine. The fruits resonate with seemingly endless vibrations between tart and citric, ripe and decomposing. Chalky earth, nitric sky and briny ocean.
