TASTING NOTES
A lovely smokey nose of toasty oak blends with meaty, sour cherry, wild herb, cola, and dandelion & burdock notes. A supple, rich palate follows with an inviting, succulent rounded body and a restrained yet well-formed and persistent structure. A truly lovely Pinot Noir with incredible versatility on the table, this will pair well with most light dishes and meats, from picnics to fireplaces.
