A genetic cousin to Pinot Noir with a lighter body and brighter acidity. Paired very nicely with Tuscan Chicken (rice, mushrooms, bell peppers, onion) Also brilliant as an after dinner drink when chilled to 55-60. Floral nose of light red fruit and gained a more pronounced cranberry note as it warmed. Tart finish of medium length

Medium ruby color. Very pretty nose of crunchy red fruits, a touch of cracked pepper, some floral notes and a fresh herbal/minty aroma. Similar flavors on the palate with some juicy raspberry and cranberry notes along with a bit of the floral and spice notes. Medium+ acid, medium tannin. Very nice wine overall and extremely versatile from a food pairing perspective.

80% whole cluster. Fresh medium nose of cranberry, fresh ground pepper, pomegranite, orange peel, rose petal. Palate matches with a light style, tart, fresh, like a light Beaujolais, light cherry, acidity shows at the end. Nice food wine.
