Rich and seductive nose that started at me with ripe raspberry, cherry candy, craisins, and just a little touch of barrel spice. This is definitely a more plush and lush style of Pinot Noir. The palate is fairly rich and medium bodied, there's a gentle line of acidity running through but nothing crazy or puckering, as a result the fruit is fairly ripe on the palate, ripe raspberry, a little stewed strawberry, a little touch of cherry compote. This is something I could absolutely see being on the table this season, or even into the next, a pretty gentle and accessible bottle of Pinot Noir with a little more elegance than you can find elsewhere in this style.
