What to Expect

Pinot Noir: Responsible for some of the greatest wines on earth - the exhausted red wines of France's Burgundy region. Pinot Noir is a notoriously fickle grape that expresses its origins like no other. It's a vine that needs to struggle to produce great wines but when it does the depth of flavors that range from cherry to cola can be explosive and the wines' bright acidity and gentle tannins make them approachable and widely appealing,

Winemakers Notes

Deep ruby, almost opaque. The nose is subdue at first, lightly perfumed with plummy, dusty fruit with hints only of super ripe fruit. The palate by contrast is massive, sumptuous even, with sweet, velvety fruit, a supple, rich, broad-shouldered structure and an extraordinarily powerful and sustained finish. Magnificent. From 2010.
