This Pinot presents intensely concentrated aromas of ripe Bing cherries, black plum, and a hint of damp earth. On the palate, it's full-bodied with vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins. Lush fruit flavours dominate, layered with notes of sous-bois, black tea, and subtle oak spice. The finish is long and complex, echoing the fruit and earthiness. Ideal with duck à l'orange, venison carpaccio, or earthy mushroom dishes.
