As this wine is poured into your glass, you will notice its beautiful, dark ruby red color. The first impression starts in the nose with intense blackberry fruit aromas, cola and cassis jam followed by a touch of vanilla and tobacco accented with hints of baking spice and red licorice. The wine is richly textured and balanced with a beautiful brightness. Flavors of black cherry, tobacco and sweet barrel spice shine throughout. Fine tannins round out the long, smooth finish. With one sip, you'll be transported to a laid-back afternoon on the river, where freshly-picked blackberries, a hint of vanilla, and the warmth of tobacco fill your senses. This Pinot Noir is flavorful, balanced, and refreshing - so much more than your average wine.
