A beautiful expression of a cool-climate Pinot Noir. The old world elegance of this wine outclasses the clumsy American style with its delicate finesse, classic balance and lower alcohol level. The fruit profile is not big and jammy, but shows fresh fruit and floral aromas: cherries, plum and violets which is complemented by a sous bois (underbrush) character; sticks, leaves, earth. The velvety texture of this wine is unmistakably Pinot Noir and the long finish is the undeniable mark of a winemakers careful attention to detail.
