The 2009 The Great Marco Pinot Noir presents a medium ruby color and notes of black cherries, pomegranate and red plums with an undercurrent of anise, Mediterranean herbs and cloves. Full bodied and richly fruited, it gives a firm level of grainy tannins, crisp acid and a long dried herb and blackberry finish. Drinking now, it should cellar through 2015+.
