A lively Pinot Noir that features deep black cherry fruit, with damp earth, cardamom and hibiscus notes in both aroma and flavor. A plush entry is followed by a bright acidic pop that extends the finish and keeps things integrated throughout. Its bolder profile will lend itself well to beef dishes.
