Character Description
Delicate in color, this Pinot Noir reveals a bright ruby hue. On the nose, it opens with fragrant aromas of cherry, cranberry, and red plum, layered with hints of rose petals, clove, and forest floor. The palate is fresh and finely textured, balancing juicy red fruits with savory spice and subtle oak integration. Fine tannins and vibrant acidity carry through to a long, graceful finish.
Perfect Pairings
This Pinot Noir is a versatile companion for food. It pairs beautifully with grilled salmon, duck breast, mushroom risotto, or herb-roasted chicken. For a vegetarian pairing, try it with lentil-based dishes or roasted root vegetables with thyme and olive oil.
