Average Pinot Noir, drinkable but nothing particularly amazing. Wouldn’t buy again but would drink again

It was ok. Not off in any way, but nothing particularly noteworthy either.

Excellent tart white wine, great on its own or with salty cheese

Fragrant, with black cherry, ripe pomegranate and cranberry sauce demanding recognition. A generous touch of dark roses and dried lavender fall to tobacco leaf, gun smoke, and clove. Zippy and even on the verge of austere. Chewy and muscular tannins provide support for an expressive, spicy, and puckering finish. A slight hint of addictive creaminess makes its presence on the nose and palate. Mainly, this is "new" old world style; the fruit has been elevated. Delicious right now. However, this could use some time to develop. Great effort here.

Рубин не насыщен. Типичный нз пино, чуть сдержанней, чем обычно. Ягод много, чуть кофе.
