Tasting notes
Limpid violet. Spice-tinged red fruits, flowers and botanical herbs on the incisive nose. Bitter cherry, red currant, licorice and fresh bay flavors are sweetened by hints of mocha and vanilla. Fine-grained tannins lend shape and grip to a long, chewy finish that echoes the cherry and licorice notes.

This has a pretty nose of violets, cherries, wild strawberries and milk chocolate. Dark spices, too. Itâs medium-bodied with bright acidity and fine, tight-grained tannins. Very focused and precise. Drink or hold.
Vivid magenta. Spice-accented aromas of black raspberry, cherry-cola, pungent flowers and incense, along with a subtle vanilla flourish. Sappy and expansive on the palate, the Pinot Noir Archer's Edge Estate offers juicy, appealingly sweet red/dark berry preserve, spicecake and floral pastille flavors. This Pinot Noir shows very good depth and an undercurrent of smoky, energizing minerality. It conveys power as well as vivacity on a long, penetrating finish that's framed by velvety, slow-building tannins.
