Appearance: Lighter ruby red color with slight violet hues.
Aroma: Refined aromatic profile with notes of red cherries, wild raspberries, forest undergrowth, violets, along with a slight hint of spicy wood and mineral notes.
Taste: Elegantly medium-bodied with an exceptionally silky texture. Dominated by flavors of fresh red fruit, undergrowth, herbs, and earthy minerality, with balanced fresh acidity and fine, elegant tannins.
Finish: Long-lasting, fresh finish with increasing complexity and a slightly spicy minerality, characteristic of top Pinot Noirs from cooler sites.
