Aromas of blackberry jam, boysenberry, white pepper, wintergreen, malt and mocha. Bright flavors of blueberries and blackberries, pomegranate and iodine with matching tannins. Made in a Pinot Noir style but with more sap but with similar crisp acidity. The finish is very fruity and seductive. A Pinot lover’s Syrah. Score: 92. Reviewed February 8, 2015 WINERY » ARTICLE »
