Classical Russian river pinot, deep color most likely some Syrah blended in. Good balance of fruit, acidity and some tanins. Not too much residual sweetness

Dark berry dominates from the nose to the finish; but it's quite pleasurable and offers more than one note. Its complexity comes from a step up in body from first-touch to the finish. It starts light and finishes with a medium mouth-feel. Ultimately it was not an ideal pairing with steak frites and bernaise, but still delivered dutifully and is an undoubted crowd-pleaser.

Fruit forward with a bigger finish than expected. Bolder than most and very enjoyable.

Fresh chopped cherry on the nose. Light flavor of cherry and biscuit. Watery. Pleasant light tannic finish.
