Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2012 Pinot Noir exudes expressive notes of red currants, Bing cherries and pomegranate with hints of cedar, tea leaves, soil and underbrush. Medium bodied and quite tightly wound on the palate, it give layers of red berry and earthy flavors supported by grainy tannins and finishing with wonderful persistence. This is a very elegant / delicate expression of this label.
