A dynamic, crowd-pleasing red Burgundy that straddles the line between New World generosity and Old World finesse. Bursting with juicy black cherry and red berries it shows impressive energy and brightness thanks to a lively spine of acidity. Its vivid fruit and polish make it a natural fit for fans of Russian River Valley Pinot seeking a touch more sophistication. Dark in the glass and still youthful, this is a wine with plenty of upfront charm but also room to grow. A near-ideal gateway bottle for those exploring the space between California and Burgundy. Drink now with a decant, or better yet, give it a few more years to unwind.
