Winemaker Notes
This vibrant and enticing Pinot Noir offers lovely aromas of fresh-picked strawberry, Bing cherry and blueberry with subtle hints of mushroom, lavender, sage and white pepper. On the palate, perfectly balanced acidity and well-integrated French oak underscore the bright fruit flavors to create an elegantly structured wine.

Tried once, went back for more, that's all I got to say...

pretty gosh darn good. subtle, palatable upon open, as the bottle aerates, the nitrates settle opening up a delightful mildly dry, sweet, fruity, wine that seemingly saturates a dry sponge of gratification.
