So much to enjoy here – all the senses come alive. Bright purple-cherry red crimson hues. Summer berries, fresh and compote-style, rise in cherries, berries, plum and cranberry with aromatic scents of rose petal, rosehip and dried herbs. Bursts in freshness on the tongue with a life and energy of its own. Hints of confection and florals mingle among the berries and cherries, earth and spice with a light blood orange rind citrus twang. There is an infectious vibrancy to the fruit but also depth and concentration – the best of both Pinot worlds. So pure, precise, almost sultry with a super fresh acidity and the finest of tannins, the kind to take it well into the future.
