Garnet in color with a nice red berry nose. On the mid palate the wine matches the nose with nice strawberry and raspberry notes. On the medium length finish the wine displays some nice soft tannins and lively acidity. This is definitely more of a fruit forward robust pinot. It’s nice and dry. I would give it an 88+. We paired it with cornish hen and it went very well.
