An explosive and beguiling wine that will make a believer of any Pinot Noir fan, not aware of the world-class potential for the varietal in the Finger Lakes. The wine has a glowing, garget and burgundy color, along with a dense, lifted nose of cherry pie, mushrooms and herb-tinged raspberries. The palate is lifted with flowery notes, spicy complexity, rich, round red fruits and an integrated, structured acidity. This is already delicious but will continue to improve and gain complexity with age.
