Tasting Notes: This is an intense and fairly full-bodied Pinot Noir with concentrated cherry and raspberry aromas on the pleasant, vibrant nose. The body and mouth feel is influenced by the high alcohol (14.5%) and light residual sugar (3.5 g/l) adding lots of texture to the fruit-forward, bright and completely satisfying, well-structured palate. Drink 2012-2016.
