Very fruit forward - Both red and black berries and a bit of Violet. M+ acid and body. M- tannin. Long finish.

Yes it's ripe but well balanced and complete.
It might be a crime to drink Pinot in an Italian restaurant but it pairs so well with pasta it's insane.

Rhubarb, cherry-cola, and sandy loam. A really easy drinker.

Different from most of the Russian rivers I've had. Very smooth earthly and not terribly strong. Overall good wine.

2014 very subtle aroma...taste is absolutely steel does this wine see oak..not good oak if it does. Mild body and pretty acidic. Its not a bad wine but lacks that rustic mushroom dried late autumn leaf taste that we love about burgundy. I hate that i paid for this.
