Quite meaty wine with fine tannins. Medium weight with dominant raspberry taste. Not very refined.

Unbricked ruby. Freaking textbook nose of roses and spices, perfumed and delicate, sweet and inviting like a country maiden picking flowers. So, so Pinot. The palate is sweet, soft, inviting with pie cherries, macerated raspberries, cinnamon and a little wood spice. Good, not great, length. But exceedingly delicious. Wonderful, with a very light touch. (My wine.)

Big tenants. Very approachable. Hint of tar. Soft upfront yet great tannins in the finish elegant meaty with a hint of spice.

2013 vintage. That's good. Lovely complexity. Menthol cool note. Nice tannins. Great potential here.
