Pop and pour. A wondrous medium ruby red color. On the nose: very attractive aromas of red fruit, funky forest floor, cinnamon, cedar spice and vanilla oak. Taste: creamy, balanced wine with raspberry/strawberry, mushrooms, rootbeer, cedar, ending with a black raspberry spiced oak medium plus finish. Nice single bloc pinot.
