  Cherry cola nose. Sweet strawberry and raspberry bonbon with sour cherry. Smooth texture, mid weight for a Pinot. Very satisfying and with blood orange zest lingering. Not sure this can improve.

  This wine is one of the better Phelps Pinot wines. Nose was floral and some herbs. Flavors were full of fruit - ripe red cherry and some cassis. Finish elevated the crisp and tart red cherry . It was a beautiful wine!
