This is a Pinot Noir with wonderful red cherry, spices, bramble fruit and lifted florals. The fine tannins balance well with its acid backbone creating a generous, smooth wine.

The nose starts off with some salty, earthy complexity, adding mushroom and umami notes to the otherwise bright red-berry fruit. The light- to medium-bodied palate crunches with crisp acidity and tight, fine, herb-smudged tannins.

Sage notes lead the herbal thread in this red, with straightforward cherry and pomegranate flavors and a hint of orange zest on the fresh, juicy finish. Drink now. 6,500 cases imported.
