"Bright ruby-red. Heady red and dark berry liqueur aromas are complemented by notes of cola, vanilla, smoky Indian spices and incense. Plush and perfumed in the mouth, offering sweet black raspberry and cherry-cola flavors that are given spine by juicy acidity. Sexy, seamless and sweet on the finish, with youthfully chewy tannins folding smoothly into this suave pinot's concentrated fruit. This bottling, a selection from the Kite's Rest vineyard, was raised in 100% new oak, which it is handling just fine."
