"When first poured this wine leads with broad milk chocolate and black cherry aromas. It grows more generous and juicy with air, its cherry and cocoa elements lifted and lean."

"Straightforward smells of crushed cherries are easily detected in the nose, while equally forthright tastes of red cherry fruit are forward and fresh in the mouth. Notes of tealeaf and plum creep in toward the finish, adding a pleasingly spicy note. Rather high-toned, thanks to generous acidity, the tannins are round and unobtrusive. This cleanly made, straight-ahead Pinot pairs well with pork tenderloin."

"This fresh, young Pinot Noir opens with aromas of black cherries, black raspberries and a bit of sweet oak, followed by easy-drinking flavors of dark, delicious fruit that leads to a lingering finish."
