Tasting Notes
"Purplish mid to light crimson with a purple-pink soft rim. If anything, the aroma is darker-fruited than the Pinot Noir and more obviously mineral/stony, but with a lovely floral quality, too. I am not sure if there is any whole bunch in here but it smells like it – herbal and stony, with the subtle and distinctive scent of peony. Darkly, elegantly fragrant, with a hint of white pepper. On the palate, sweeter-fruited than I expected, with red and dark-red fruits and some wild strawberry. Very fine tannins for such a young wine, bone dry, so dry it is a little bit chewy, but the tannins are paper fine. Terrific length and freshness with the complexity and integration of the co-ferment. Pure, unadulterated pleasure and great persistence for what tastes like a relatively lightweight wine, even though the alcohol has given it body." - Julia Harding MW, Jancis Robinson
