WINE NOTES

Pure garnet in the glass with warm spices and pomegranate on the nose. Red currant and morello cherries showcase a deep red fruit palate while earthy mushroom umami creates a tantalizing wisp of savory. Spice and pomegranate make a return on the slightly chewy finish. The balance of broad flavors will lend ease in pairing this Pinot Noir with a variety of cuisine.
