Estimate
Impressive complexity here. Sappy, ripe dark cherries take center stage, surrounded by earthy and spicy elements and leafy nuances, too. The palate has a smooth build of ripe red-cherry flesh and delivers a succulent, plush and juicy finish. Stylish and refined pinot here.
...richly layered and supremely structured in a wealth of crunchy red fruit and cardamom spice. Tension reigns in the form of sharp, persistent acidity and bold, integrated tannins that add substance and style.
...classy...great perfume of black raspberries and dark berry fruits as well as medium body, bright yet integrated acidity, fine tannins, and building complexity in its darker, earthy, spicy aromas and flavors...
...scents of crushed red and black cherries, smoked cranberries and rhubarb arrive, accented by cinnamon, dried leaves, tobacco, mushroom and earth with spices and bitters in the undercurrent. The palate is medium-bodied with satisfying depth of flavor, a gentle frame and well-woven freshness on the long finish.
