Powerful nose of smoke, steaming rocks in a wood sauna, strawberry lemonade. Forest floor, full for a Pinot Noir, rounded texture. At peak. This is a sleeper of a wine that pulled itself up by its bootstraps and achieved greatness. Paired perfectly with cedar plank salmon.

purple-prune color, first stages of bricking. floral-lavender, dried flowers and brown spices on the nose. red berries and strawberry, a little acidic cranberry twang, lavender, brown plum, dull cinnamon, browned butter.

Elegant style, spice, earth and berry flavors, with fine tannins.

Pop 'n pour. Soft and smooth with abundant ripe fruit. Lacks acidity. Nice drink but unremarkable.

Big spicy nose. Restrained bramble, raspberry and earth flavors with fine tannins.
