This pinot nicely straddles the new and old worlds in style. Attractive nose with varietal red fruit essence, and well-balanced and fairly light on the palate, despite the hefty 14% ABV. Thanks to deft handling of oak, there is a nice spicy component, with well-managed soft tannins. It actually reminds me of some of the better Ontario pinots from a warmer than average vintage, from producers such as Hidden Bench.
