Tasting notes
Saturated crimson. Cherry, blueberry, candied flowers and baking spices on the perfumed nose, along with subtle earth and vanilla flourishes. Smooth and expressive on the palate, offering gently sweet red and blue fruit flavors complemented by woodsmoke and cola nuances. The floral and cherry notes drive a long, subtly tannic finish that shows fine definition and spicy cut.

Medium ruby-purple, the 2018 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills opens with savory notions of leather, graphite and tobacco with a core of red and blue berry fruits. The palate is medium-bodied with concentrated, incredibly spicy flavor layers, firm and super fresh, and it finishes very long and flavorful. Give it another 2-3 years in bottle.
This has a very complete and complex, spicy dark-cherry nose with very well integrated spice and bracken complexity. The palate has such beautifully fleshy, rich dark cherries with ample tannin, carrying impressive length and depth. Delicious and already drinkable.
