"Even as fine as the Pitures is, this goes it one better as the ultra-elegant nose of red pinot fruit and wet stone is a positive knockout. The intense, delineated and attractively spicy middle weight flavors also exude an almost pungent minerality and are supported by very fine and dusty tannins. This is long, classy and simply terrific."
