This wine has an intense bouquet of spices and red berries that leads to a fully structured wine with delicate aromas of vanilla, white pepper and blackberries. The complex flavors give way to a long, clean finish. This is a well-balanced wine, great to enjoy with all kind of steaks, simple and complex dishes as stew, marinated pork, beef, duck, etc. Earthiness balanced by a hint of fruit, but is refreshingly free of the excess candy qualtity of so many contemporary Pinots. - Marguerite Thomas Critics Challenge International Wine Competition
