Spicy red fruit and black fruits. Hints of old world but not too much. #pinotnoir

Vivid ruby red, with a bouquet of dark red fruit and spicy aromas. On the palate ripe fruit flavors of cherries, plum and dried red berries, slight earthy and mineral taste. Aged for 8 months on French oak (15% new), the tannins are silky smooth, savory and tangy. The finish has nice length, rich and full-bodied, grab a bottle and enjoy!

Some funk, medium to full bodied ... you can taste the Californian sun. Overpriced though!

Really enjoy this Pinot, smooth but deep but not overly deep. Tiny taste of earthiness but overall super enjoyable.
