The mouth of this medium-bodied wine is riper; it has all the acidity and perhaps more that it needs to balance out the wine, with blacker notes, dark cherry, blackberries, raspberry, and nice, grippy tannin. The dirt and earth are there, but behind all the fruit.
This wine will appeal to those seeking a fuller-bodied, riper Pinot. The finish is long, tart, and refreshing. The grippy tannins linger long, with some leather and rock. Drink until 2027.
