Top Notes For

Nearly mistakable for Burgundy, perhaps a good but not excellent Volnay. The lingering cherry finish reminds you that it is indeed new world, despite it's earthy demeanor. Bright acidity and and low but firm tannins. Muted red fruit, sous bois, tea leaves and limestone. Attractive entry level pinot at a good price. 🍒🍂🍄

Bottom shelf Greystone. Savoury Canterbury character coming through. Leather, dried herbs, red cherry. Succulent and vibrant. Quite tannic.
