This is a very rich, deep Pinot Noir that shows a fair amount of oak at present, but promises to integrate beautifully. The black cherry, vanilla, stem and mushroom notes play well together, and the oak spice will soften into real elegance. En Route is part of the Far Niente stable of great wines, and a worthy one at that.
