A subtle, delicate style showing ripe black cherry, plum and boysenberry notes on a medium body, with baking spices, mineral and dried berry flavors rolling off the finish.

Cellar Selection. A very fine Pinot Noir, dry and elegantly constructed, but it needs a little time in the cellar. That’s due to the tannins, which are thick and noticeable in the way they create an astringency through the finish. The flavors are exceptionally rich, suggesting cherries, raspberries and tobacco, with a welcome sweetness from toasty oak. — S.H. (4/1/2012)

A very fresh and attractive nose of red cherry, cranberry and blue pinot aromas nuanced with a hint of the vegetal introduces vibrant, detailed and pure medium-bodied flavors that possess good focus and detail on the clean, balanced and lingering finish. I very much like the style and the mouth feel and all this needs to be at the next level is more overall depth. In a word, pretty.
