A simply stunning nose of rose petal-inflect red pinot fruit that is ultra pure and surprisingly discreet leads to rich, full and wonderfully elegant, detailed and racy medium full flavors wrapped in a precise, driving and harmonious finish. This is flat out gorgeous with real energy and it's built to age. Terrific.
