" The bouquet is deep, almost Gevrey-Chambertin-like in its expression of pinot noir fruit tones, as it offers up notes of strawberry, cherry, a bit of cranberry, plenty of minerality, dried roses and a faint touch of bread dough. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, laser-like in its focus and stunning, with a rock solid core of fruit, bright, orange-like acidity, and lovely soil inflection on the long, crisp and powerful finish."
