Tasting notes
This is from a single block in Las Terrazas vineyard. Rather heavy bottle. Vegetal/beetroot spectrum of Pinot aromas. Pale crimson. Fresh and transparent. Masses of acidity and not that much flesh but it is certainly refreshing. (JR)

Aged 12 months in 15% new French oak. Loads and loads of juicy redcurrant cherry flavour. Some stemminess, but some sulphurous reduction too. Sweet and ripe on the palate, very smooth and velvety on the palate. Recognisably Pinot, but the fruit is a little crude, and the nose could be cleaner. (RH)
Dark red. Pungent, smoke-accented aromas of cherry and blackberry, with a hint of white pepper adding lift. Spicy and focused on the palate, offering gently sweet dark fruit flavors and a touch of cola. Finishes with repeating smokiness, a touch of bitter chocolate and smooth, even tannins.
