Beautiful wine. Deep ruby in color, mostly clear and bright. The nose is complex and deep. Flavors of cherries, plums, slight black raspberries along with some earthiness and just a hint of forest floor. Medium to full bodied. Light tannins. Flavors of sweet cherries, black cherries, slight cocoa and earthiness. Long finish. This feels like it is not yet at peak and should drink well for another ten to twelve years. Great on its own, it should work well with most Pinot friendly foods such as Roasted Duck or Mushrooms/Truffles. Long finish.
