Aromatic & Flavor Profile:
Uncork a sensory journey with aromas of rose petals, pomegranate, and a herbaceous blend of oregano and marjoram. The palate dances with bright acidity, offering flavors of thyme-infused strawberry sauce, fresh cherries, and a subtle earthiness reminiscent of wet stone. Winemaker notes highlight savory red fruits like raspberry and plum, layered with warm spices—cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove—for a complex, lingering finish.

Texture & Structure:
Silky and refined, this Pinot Noir boasts a plush mid-palate with creamy tannins and balanced acidity, making it versatile for pairing with roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or aged cheeses.
