Lots of wild strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant, clove, dried spices and lemon zest. Silky, spicy and sophisticated with sleek tannins and a medium body. Pretty and polished. Drink now or hold. Screw cap.
Fresh and vibrant, with a mix of wild strawberry, raspberry and açaí berry flavors on a silky frame. This has intensity but also a lovely sense of aromatics and elegance, ending with forest floor, spice and tarragon grace notes on the finish, which add a terrific savory edge. Drink now through 2030
This is a polished, balanced, fairly rich Pinot from Martinborough’s largest winery. It starts out a touch reductive, showing mealy oak, but as it opens shows more plump red berry fruit, undergrowth and gentle spice characters. Tannins have a savory, sappy tug on the silky fruit in the mouth. There’s an almost surprising freshness here and a good length to the finish.
Shows intense spice and perfume with a clear, sappy (70% whole-bunch) edge and gently reductive tones to the red and dark cherries. The palate texture has quite fine and nuanced tannins with dark-cherry and chocolate flavors. Smoothly delivered.
Attractive red-cherry, pot-pourri and rose aromas with gingerbread, too. The palate has a supple, juicy red-cherry core with a smooth-honed, long and focused finish. Upbeat.
