"Aromas of baked cherry, dark cocoa, roasted coffee and violets waft from the glass on the nose of this Pinot Noir. The palate brings punchy red fruit, cinnamon and caramel flavors, which evolve into darker spiced flavors as the finish lingers. ‡ Tom R. Capo"

"A nice streamlined, mineral-tinged version, with racy acidity running underneath blood orange and raspberry coulis flavors, while savory and hibiscus hints chime in on the finish, where the fruit lingers prettily. Drink now through 2028. 3,000 cases made. From California.—James Molesworth"
