91 RP. "Bright red. Expansive, strongly perfumed aromas of cherry, cured meat, rose and smoky Indian spices. Deep, chewy red berry and cherry flavors are enlivened by a peppery quality and firmed by dusty tannins. Gains sweetness on the finish, which features cherry pit and bitter chocolate. The richest and most backward of this year's set of pinots-from 100% Pommard clone." Vinous, Nov 2008 |
