"This wine is an intense ruby which inclines to hints of mahogany, with a nose showing both florals and red/black berries followed by crushed aromatic leaves, Christmas fruitcake spice, ginger and gamey undertones. The palate is charming " suave and silky, hiding a moderately firm spreading structure with a long after-taste. Flavours of red and black cherries dominate the Christmas fruit cake spice and carob and this is followed by a similar gamy undertone matching the aromatics. These wines can "go into a tunnel" after 6 months or so " but by next spring expect it to open, finally showing its true breed from about 3-4 years. Many of our Pinots have rewarded those who have cellared them for over ten years."
