Expert Reviews

90 Points | International Wine Cellar , December 2009

Bright, deep cherry-red.  Scented nose offers cherry, raspberry, cranberry, licorice and sandalwood.  Creamy and vibrant on the palate, with a distinctly seamless texture to the concentrated, pure dark fruit flavors.  Sound acids and smooth tannins give this pinot excellent shape and backbone.  Finishes very fresh, with notes of black cherry and licorice.  Excellent pinot noir at a gentle price.
