2016 Chasseur Pinot Noir

This elegant and fruit-forward Pinot is both complex and sweetly ripe to the nose, as scents of red cherries, Mr. Lincoln roses and wild black berries join subtle smoky tones, some dried orange peel and hints of powdered sumac in a pretty aromatic display.  The impression of sleek, aristocratic elegance is just as captivating on the palate, where the wines filigree of gentle savory notes melts into a lovely array of red raspberry, wild black berry, cherry and rose petal fruit, finishing with nuances of graphite/lead pencil.
