All whole clusters

this is not to say that it is an elegant wine though it is less youthfully austere than I typically find with this wine

This has gone from strength to strength and only seems to get better with each passing year

There is a background touch of wood setting off the cool and admirably pure red and black pinot fruit that is bursting with an array of spices and wet stone

this will work just fine

There is very good verve to the utterly delicious and slightly finer medium weight flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the balanced and harmonious finish. This isnt quite as complex as the Grves though that may well change with time as the track record of this wine developing well is firmly established.
