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

NOSE: Pretty and lifted nose with hints of rose petals and potpourri. Poached strawberries and a hint of spice.

PALATE: Soft acid, with restrained elegance. Notes of dried bay leaf and fresh raspberries.

FOOD: Char grilled quail. Christmas turkey. Fresh goat cheese.
