Garnet in color, this wine opens with aromas of bright cherry, plum pie, cocoa nibs, and hints of baking spice. The palate is rich and well-balanced with notes of raspberry jam, candied cranberry, wild bramble, and a lingering pepper finish. Incredible depth and concentration complement rich tannins and lead into a smooth, medium finish.
Winery Notes
Rich, dark, and intense fruit flavors take top billing in this Elouan Pinot Noir, a wine that beautifully reflects the warm and dry growing season. Dark ruby in color, the wine powers up with aromatics of a plum pie, mixed-berry jam and smoky, game-bird characteristics that set the stage for flavors of cherry, blackberry, boysenberry, and smoked bacon. The balance is excellent, with solid structure, superb depth and concentration, rich tannins, and a nice smoky, earthy finish. Pair with pork loin, pan-seared salmon, Peking duck or veal with a mushroom sauce.
