Ruby red from Chile, aromas of red fruits berries and herb floral spice. On the palate flavors black cherry and raspberry with spicy oak and floral notes with good balance with acidity. Firm tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and toasty oak character. Drink now while it’s fresh.

This thing is all lightly green raspberries, dried lavender, balsamic tanginess, forest floor undertones. Tender tar-tinged tannins. Aromas are spectacular but palate is a touch underripe. #chile #pinotnoir #alliterationisfun

Bright tart cherry and berry upfront and that highly desirable Pinot earthiness that pairs so well with salmon, pork, cheeses, and charcuterie. I am surprised some folks have rated it so low in comparison to how good it tastes! I would definitely buy this again!

Fairly unremarkable. A bit bland with pronounced fruit acids.

Really wanted to like this but it started decent & downhill from there. Light ruby, thin with tart cherry & cranberry - soft juicy and near weightless. Brief finish. This lacked ripeness & concentration - not sure If this is due to vintage, age of vines or soil composition. P.S. Big ol James Suckling sticker on bottle (92) - seeing that a lot since he left WS - rarely agree w/him

Tame upon opening but on second day it blossoms nicely.
