richly textured and sumptuous, this pinot has cherry, red licorice, cola, pepper and sandalwood flavors that go on into a long, spicy finish. the tannins are silky and integrated. the wine displays the fruit forwardness of the vintage, as well as the careful viticulture of the vineyard. lovely to drink now with steak, and it will reward cellaring until 2020 to 2022.
