A light to medium red in colour, with the nose showing varietal dark cherry fruit that is accentuated by plum, undergrowth and sandalwood spices.

The palate bucks the trend of many 2011 Pinots with good depth and textural layers across the wine with cherry, plum and taut acidity wel balanced.

The tannins are blocky on the finish with some sweetness from the oak that is just kept in check, the wine lingers with drying plum.
