This is really good. The first thing that hit was a peppery nose. Then there was dry cherry and dry strawberry with tart acidity. Chocolate, pine needles and oak come up as you drink it. Minerality is dry stone and a little earth. This is not a fruit forward Pinot. It's relatively light bodied with old school burgundy complexity coming in. The peppery tartness stood up to Thanksgiving turkey and gravy. I'm glad I bought several bottles.
