Definitely one of the better New World pinot noirs I've had. As usual a lot of flavour and powerful on the nose. Worked great as the more heavier wine to eight courses of Chinese food.

Nose is full of new world pinot expressions; black berries, chewy licorice candy, sweet coffee milk. Fullish body but also with a certain freshness. Finish is not perfectly balanced, leaving a slight overextracted feeling. But it could also just be that it needs a couple of years to calm down. Second day the edges are softer and all the lovely warm flavors come into their own, though the licorice tends to dominate and the finish is short.

Clear, ruby colour. Fruity, smooth, spicy nose with lots of blackberries followed by cherries, sweet liqorice, stable scent. The taste is smooth, spicy, jammy, with hints of blackberries and salt liqorice. A good wine at this price.

Härligt vin med mycket karräktär. Mycket vin för pengarna och slår franska pinot noirer i samma prisklass.

Spicy, balanced flavor with hint of barrel character, plum and red berries.
