A vibrant, elegant Pinot Noir with a fine savoury edge and subtle floral notes. Complex yet approachable and so dangerously drinkable. The palate has a delicious, filigreed texture, with weaved layers of crunchy red berries, dried sage and dried violets. Fine tannins and an alluring, fine acidity. Long and delicious finish.
