James SucklingAromas of flowers and lightly green flower stems follow through to a medium body with firm tannins and a fresh finish. Medium, fine tannins. Best after 2024.

Wine EnthusiastThe wine's positively frisky texture and zippy acidity will awaken the most jaded palate. Aromas and flavors of raspberries and Craisins are joined by wee bits of Douglas fir bark, sweet-pea flowers, orange zest and dark chocolate. What's not to love?

Pinot Noir is a red wine grape variety that is widely considered one of the most challenging and finicky to grow. It is known for producing elegant, aromatic wines with flavors and aromas that can include red berries, cherry, floral notes, and earthy undertones. Pinot Noir is often associated with regions like Burgundy in France, where it reaches its pinnacle, producing some of the world's most sought-after and expensive wines.
