Medium reddish purple in color. Freshly cut mint, black cherry, wet leaves, and tobacco are evident on the nose. It’s medium bodied with voluptuous dark fruit on the palate which borders on sappy but is complimented by some spice and a somewhat savory quality. The above is backed up by a structure of fine grained tannins and a nice balancing acidity with 14.6% alcohol. Élevage in 33% new French oak for 17 months. Should please fans of the big Pinot style championed by Kosta Browne and others. $70.
