Aromas of raspberry and watermelon with a hint of earthiness. Flavors of raspberry, pomegranate and portobello mushroom with enough acidity to keep it exciting. Smooth finish with a little bit of tannins. Paired with duck quite well.

Light Ruby with red fruit aromas. On the palate strawberry and cherry with lively acidity and silky tannins. Nice value.

It's not often that I give a $20 bottle this high of a rating, but I'm very impressed. The nose is very attractive - bright red fruit, plummy characteristics, a whif of uncooked bacon and oak char. Palate is seamless and elegant with some floral notes and dried cranberry alongside chewy overripe sweet plum. Has a RRV-like purity to it, but with some oak treatment that I'm loving, some fresh strawberries on the finish.. very well put together pinot.. this makes me want to explore this producer a bit more!

Light, but maybe a bit on the fizzy side for me. Maybe for someone else, but not worth the price if buying for self

Great Pinot at a ridiculous price point from K&L. Deep yet not rich, great acidity. I am loving Marlborough Pinot right now!

En vista hermoso color granate con destellos teja, muy llamativo brillante vivaz, limpio, transparente y de densidad baja, su capilaridad se expresaba mediante finas lagrimas que recorrian el cristal muy deprisa dejando un rastro de arcos que desaparecian elegantemente.

En nariz a copa quieta notas a madera seca, luego notas muy introvertidas a fruta semi madura como cereza, y notas a frutas citricas bastante presentes como frambuesa y fresa junto a notas lacteas. Mineralidad presente.

En boca bastante franquesa, dejando expuesto lo percibido en vista como en nariz, ataque dulce en punta de lengua de persistencia media, luego una acidez media baja, tanicidad media y astringencia media, las tres presentes pero muy en armonia; posterior una despedida amarga de persistencia media baja. Vino femenino, seductor, franco y facil de beber.
