My pick of Trisaetum's Pinot Noirs, the 2011 Estates Reserve is comprised of 13-20 barrels that are aged 11 months on French oak and offers elegant, complex aromatics. Dried mint, bittersweet chocolate, and lively orange zest notes lead into a wine that is bright, yet balanced. The fruit really shows up on the palate—an intersection of dried cherries and cranberry compote that finishes with a spicy jolt of white pepper. — 11 years ago

I really love this wine. Very simple yet subtle. Lots of fruits, like black berries but also lots of structure and something wild and anima. With a tiny smokiness... Yum! The reference might be stupid but, for me who is huge fan of both burgundy and north rhone, I kind of feel at the intersection of both. — 11 years ago
