The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals good personality with intense, clean, pleasing, elegant and refined aromas that start with aromas of cherry, raspberry and strawberry followed by good aromas of vanilla and dried violet as well as pleasing hints of black pepper, licorice and chocolate. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and a pleasing crispness however well balanced by alcohol, intense flavors, good body, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry, raspberry and strawberry. A well made wine. This Pinot Noir ages in barrique for 12 months and in bottle for 12 months.
