Light red in color. 14.9% ABV. Gorgeous nose of red fruits, cloves and rose petals. Medium body with exquisite acidity. Bursting with bright fruits. Impeccably balanced. Cherry, strawberry, baking spices and earth on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. Pretty much everything I look for in a Pinot Noir. Absolutely stunning. I’ll open my last bottle in 2026.

Popped and poured at cellar temp with a little straining to get rid of the bits of a very crumbly cork. Wine is still sound. Still dark colored with just a hint of bricking at the rim. Lovely nose of blackberry fruit, cocoa dust and dark earth. Lovely texture on the palate with lots of sweet blackberry fruit a hint of cranberry acidity and a nice long finish. A little softness in the mid palate is the only real sign that this is 11 years old. Not sure if this will pick up more complexity with more age, but in a good drinking window with no signs of falling off a cliff any time soon.
