June 9, 2019 - Served a bit chilled, pale ruby colored but with a hint of darkness in the center.
The nose was appealing and broader than my expectations with raspberry and a hint of herbs and spice. On the palate a nice cherry and raspberry tone on a quite good structure of acid and tannins (for a pinot). Rich in the moment and drying at the end.
Long pleasant finish with wild raspberries.
Good to drink now but feels like it has the structure to drink in 3-5 years aswell.1 person found this helpful Comment -

April 27, 2019 - Praelum - The Wine King (Praelum Wine Bistro): A good intensity on the cassis fruits, and well balanced with a nice silky creaminess. Great!
