Tasting notes

This is a drinkable overseas pinot noir with fine fruit and a greenish finish. Deep violet-red colour. Sweet and fruity nose with hints of rasberries, anise and light flowers. Fullbodied and fruity pinot noir also in the mouth. Rasberries and flors upfront. Good concentration. Quite ripe style, but the aromas are grape-typical and the wine also shows a light minerality. Medium acidity. Some tannins in the finish. High alcohol. Shows some greenness in the lightly bitter finish. A bit too expensive for the quality.
