Bright red. Lively, spice- and smoke-tinged red currant and cherry aromas and flavors show good clarity and pick up floral and underbrush nuances with air. Juicy, focused and light on its feet, showing good energy and cut on the incisive finish, which betrays just a whisper of gentle tannins. This Pinot is drinking well right now.
The ripest of the winery's 2013 Pinots, this rounds out the fruit with pretty raspberry and cherry flavors. Light touches of oranges and chocolate are also evident, and the overall balance, length and elegance are fine. Just two barrels were produced, one new and one neutral.
