Dark, glistening red. A lively, sharply defined bouquet evokes fresh red and blue fruits, baking spices, candied flowers and a hint of blood orange. In a distinctly vibrant style, offering appealingly sweet red fruit preserve, rose pastille, spicecake and cola flavors that blend depth and finesse. Polished tannins add shape to a long, smooth finish that emphatically repeats the red fruit and floral notes. This must be the best example of this bottling that I have yet had.

Outstanding notes of framboise, camphor, spice, and even a hint of new leather emerge from the 2019 Pinot Noir Estate, a fresh, focused, pretty Pinot Noir with impressive fruit.
