Shimmering ruby. Smoky, spice-tinged black raspberry and cherry aromas carry a subtle floral topnote. Lively dark fruit and floral pastille flavors are deepened by a licorice nuance and a hint of bitter chocolate. Silky in texture and appealingly sweet, finishing with sharp focus and spicy persistence. 20% new French oak. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2020)

Smoky, dark fruits on the nose when opening. Brambles lead to plum and currants. It settles in to blueberry/black cherry, with a touch of chocolate and peppery spice. I’ll buy more.

Bright with a little bit of spunk, this Pinot noir is a friendly sipping companion. Red fruit comes through and tannins dance through the swish. Could be a good pairing to take on a mighty steak and gentle enough to invite to lighter fair. Over all pleasant, smooth, and balanced. I’m a fan.
