"Fashioned with 100% whole clusters. A wonderfully complex if extremely ripe nose is composed of notes of mocha, violets, spice and still quite fresh red and blue pinot fruit aromas. The rich, full-bodied and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors are blessed with excellent dry extract that renders the very firm tannic spine almost invisible at present though it's clear that this will require at least 15 years of cellar time to be at its best."
