Light, airy, almost tingles your nose, forward orange, mild late fresh tannins- way more interesting than most Pinots. A definite crowd pleaser.

A: Hazy, murky, strawberry red, incredibly light in color
N: something approaching lactobacillus up front, cranberry, fall spices, raspberry, strawberry, summertime red fruits in general
T: cranberry, framboise, stemmy bitterness on the finish, though there is not a very long finish as this wine is utterly without tannin
Overall: a very nice trusseau, would recommend and look forward to next release
