Light, fruity, semi-dry. Cherries, chocolate with traces of mint. Delightful.

On the nose: notes of an old hunting lodge and/or camping gear. In a good way. Light berries on the tongue and fine vanilla light tannin.

Reasonable basic Pinot. Cherry and violet aromas. Bright red berry/Cherry and cranberry fruit flavors. Hint of baking spices and Forrest Floor. A bit hot and tight, and a bit jammy. Short finish.

Medium light, medium garnet color, no legs to speak of. Good acidity. A bit of fruit (plum and black raspberry?) but a bit of earth too. Getting better as it opens up, but the bottle will be empty before it’s fully opened. I would do this again for sure... and I’m not normally a fan of lighter-side Pinot.

Blackberry jam on the nose. Currant and oak. Figs and pepper on the finish. Impressive.
