Score 93/100 · Drink 2022-2030, Josh Raynolds, Jun 2019
Deep, bright-rimmed red. Potent red/blue fruit, baking spice, violet and incense aromas are sharpened by a smoky mineral element. Juicy, seamless and broad in the mouth, showing excellent clarity to its sweet, concentrated raspberry, boysenberry, cola and floral pastille flavors. Shows impressive tension and persistence on the finish, which features harmonious tannins and lingering blue fruit and floral character.

This is a polished and complex young pinot that offers deeply spicy and ripe, darker cherries with attractive freshness. The palate delivers a suave, upbeat and very long, spice-laced array of rich, black-cherry and licorice flavor and carries deep into the fresh, even finish. Drink or hold.
