A deep rose colour with hints of topaz. Coral reflections, beautifully dazzling with a fine, persistent bead. The bouquet is delectably appetizing. Initial notes evoke scents of picking ripe berries under the summer sun: forest berries, wild strawberry, raspberry & currant rounded out with floral, botanical nuances of rhubarb, violet & poppy bonbons. A touch of vanilla & pink peppercorn underscore the vintages full-fledged maturity. The palate evokes joy, calling to mind a carnival with its twirling rides & children laughing over displays of sweets: marshmallows, hard candy, cotton candy & caramel apples. Then come notes of nutmeg, dried fig & black cherry. The Pinot Noir expresses itself with a light, airy elegance, a soft, gentle texture & a finish.
