Light and smooth, almost velvety. Touch of dryness on the finish. Touch of wood and subtle dark fruit.

After a drinking a sweeter wine this one is a little "smokey" to me? It's a nice blend and I love their Pinot Noir!

Better the day after opening. A bit sweet with musty finish. Blackberries & vanilla notes. Not too special.
