RATINGS

95Vinous / IWC

...very flattering on the nose with copious Morello cherry, wild strawberry and dark plum aromas...palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, impressive weight and girth. Demonstrates wonderful complexity and harmony towards the finish.

18Jancis Robinson

Bright, vibrant deep crimson. Very intense and layered on the nose. The palate is more transparent with Vosne raciness well in evidence.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
