Tasting Notes:
Appearance: Deep garnet with a ruby rim.
Aroma: Intense aromas of wild cherry, black raspberry, and dark plum, with lifted floral notes, spice, and hints of cedar.
Palate: Rich and structured with layers of dark berry fruit, savoury herbs, and graphite minerality. The tannins are fine-grained yet persistent, supporting a core of vibrant fruit. Balanced acidity and a long, driven finish complete this sophisticated expression.
Food Pairing: A serious Pinot Noir that pairs beautifully with game meats, roasted duck, beef carpaccio, and truffle-infused dishes. Also excellent with mature cheeses or mushroom-based entrées.
