This gorgeous Pinot Noir opens with seductive aromas of cherry liquor, sweet tobacco, fresh fennel, rose petal and boysenberry preserves. The broad, youthful, tangy, yet complex palate offers juicyvflavors of blood orange, sour cherry jam, tamarind, raspberry jerk sauce, with a hint of savory greenvplantains. The firm tannins and tangy acidity create a full-bodied texture, lending to the incredibly long, spicy finish.
Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
Focused, pure red and black cherries infuse this wine with fruit intensity from the first whiff to the tangy, lip-smacking finish. Sour cherries, rhubarb, moderate tannins and bracing acidity all add to its tangy allure. Best from 2022–2032.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Fresh and open-knit in feel, offering a mix of black cherry and pomegranate notes backed by judicious toast and a hint of rooibos tea, ending with a stylish finish.
