An amazing dark garnet hue really gets your attention on this intense Pinot. It’s dense on the nose, with concentrated boysenberry, black cherry, graphite, basil, briar, blackberry and a fun floral note. The palate is taut, deep and mouth-filling with big, juicy, dark, tarry flavors of cherry-vanilla parfait, redwood bark and granite. This wine is both big and elegant; it’s inviting, comforting and superbly balanced, promising a long fruitful life.
