AGING POTENTIAL WINEMAKER Pale ruby with brilliant clarity This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared with confidence through 2030. Guy McMaster Exotically fragrant with notes of calfskin leather, Japanese Plum, sweetheart cherries, raspberry, charcuterie and freshly mown clover hay. FOOD PAIRING Perfect with fillet steak or Peking Duck. Silky and elegantly medium bodied, the wine is seamless and supple in the mouth, the tannins are beautifully fine on the complex finish. A sophisticated and foodfriendly style of Pinot Noir silky enough for the beginner yet serious enough for the connoisseur.
