Pale ruby. Slightly cheesy, cinnamon oak, with light, delicate red fruit. Light, red-cherry palate fruit with some crunch to the tannins. Fairly restrained, with decent length and a perfumed finish. Ready now. (TJ)

Bright red. Vibrant red berry and floral aromas are complicated by suggestions of Asian spices and smoky minerals. Taut, focused and energetic in the mouth, offering lithe raspberry, bitter blood orange and spicecake flavors that deepen and become sweeter with air. Silky and graceful in style, displaying excellent closing focus, fruity persistence and harmonious tannins.
Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2015 Pinot Noir has a youthful nose of Bing cherries, red roses and fresh raspberries with a waft of lavender. Light to medium-bodied, it possesses great elegance, with a softly-spoken structure and plenty of personality.
Lots of cranberries and blueberries, in addition to undertones of rose bush and leaves. Full-bodied and fruity with a lively and fresh finish. Drink or hold. From organically grown grapes.
