AROMA The wine shows aromas of violets and black fruits including black cherry, black currant and blackberry as well as subtle rose petal and earth.
PALATE The palate is savoury and firmly structured with primary fruit notes coming to the fore. The finish is long well supported by the chewy tannin structure.

Now this is my favourite Pinot Noir, at the moment.
A must for anyone who enjoys a velvety smooth Pinot Noir.
Love the label very classy. Also a great price for an excellent drop.
