Another fruit-focused Pinot Noir with good weight and a suave texture. Not overdone in the “Pinot Syrah” mode, it finishes a touch sweet, which I suspect is due in part to its 14.5% stated alcohol. Ready to drink now. I’d be sure to served it ever so slightly chilled to minimize the effect of the alcohol.
