Tasting notes
Saturated garnet. Energetic, finely etched red fruit and floral scents pick up smoky mineral, blood orange and baking spice flourishes with air. In a lively style, showing excellent clarity and spicy lift to the juicy raspberry, mulberry and cherry cola flavors. Puts on weight with air, with no loss of energy, and finishes impressively long and precise, the floral and spice notes repeating.

The 2019 Pinot Noir The Beaux Frères Vineyard is super expressive this vintage, with scents of brambly fruit, rose petals, forest floor, sweet balsamic and blood orange. The palate has a weightless quality, its silty tannins and bright acidity highlighting an array of earthy accents, and it finishes very long.
Bright ruby colour. Sweet strawberry and red cherry on the nose with a hint of cherry cola. The palate is sappy in tannin and medium weight. Polished and rounded, full of red fruit with some sandy wood tannins on the finish, it is powerful to the end. (TP)
Aromas of crushed strawberries, cherries, dried flowers and sweet spices. Itâs medium-bodied with fine tannins and bright acidity. Lively, fresh and vibrant, with a juicy and silky texture on the palate. Spicy character, too, following through to a long, savory finish. Unfiltered. Drink or hold.
