Nice and dry, with lots of black pepper-infused wild blackberry flavors wrapped into big but pliant tannins. Lots of crunchy acidity, too, which makes the wine sharp. Will be great with a rich steak.

With a light, silky texture, this Pinot glides over the palate, carrying rich fruit and spice flavors. They include raspberries, pomegranates, cola, red licorice, cinnamon and pepper. It’s lovely in many respects, but it’s also notably sharp in acidity, a problem that’s unlikely to go away.
