Brimming with juicy red and blue fruits, along with caraway seeds and truffle oil. The fruit opulence is framed by length-defining tannins, with briary and stalky notes. Under these layers are also cinnamon, cloves and cigar-box. The texture is plush and extraordinarily generous with a very fine, chewy finish. Pairs well with roast lamb shoulder.

The cedar-scented 2018 Reserve Pinot Noir aged in 50% new French oak. Perhaps it's a bit much, but the wine does boast concentrated red fruit and a hint of mint under that oaky veneer. It's medium-bodied and silky in texture, with supple tannins that remain in the background, allowing the attractive strawberry and raspberry flavors to come through and the wine's seductive texture to shine on the finish.
