Even tasted blind, this wine has a distinctive minerality akin to that of Chablis or Pouilly-Fumé. Of course, the grape variety is different, and the aromas and flavors of lime and orange rind reflect it, but this is first a wine of its soil, which Becker has captured in its name. Plump, yet structured, and long on the finish.

Reasonably dark in color, this coffee-scented Pinot Noir also boasts dark cherry fruit, delicate tannins and a crisp finish. Hints of dried spices and root vegetables add interest. Drink now.
