Fresh and approachable upon release, the 2019 Pinot Noir Classique opens with a complex, deeply perfumed nose of black cherry and black raspberry followed by black tea, pamplemousse, cedar, and violets. Silky and expansive on the palate, it’s a precisely balanced wine, neatly framed in fine,
well-structured tannins. Tahitian vanilla, baking spice, and stony minerality emerge at the close.
