Medium-deep ruby colored, the 2009 Pinot Noir reveals intense red cherry, cranberry and red currant aromas plus nuances of pomegranate, tree moss and bay leaf. With medium-high acid and a medium level of soft tannins, this medium-bodied Pinot has good concentration and a long fruity finish. Drink it now through 2014.
