Medium to deep ruby-purple in color, the fragrant 2010 Verisimo Pinot Noir entices with a nose of black raspberries, black cherries and red currants alongside lavender, roses, earth and touches of some wild thyme. Concentrated and showing a nice backbone of medium-firm, grainy tannins offset by balanced acidity, it drinks with concentrated richness before finishing long with a savory edge to the spiciness. Only 200 cases are produced. Drink it now to 2018+. Importer: Vindagra USA Ltd

Ruby in color, the 2009 Verismo Pinot Noir has ripe red plum and red currant aromas with hints of pencil lead, loam, white pepper and underbrush. Taut and crisp in the medium bodied mouth, it offers a medium-firm level of grainy tannins with just enough elegant fruit and a long savory finish. It’s approachable now though it should drink best 2012 to 2016+. No known USA importer.
