“(Sussman’s only blended pinot noir, from seven vineyards) Medium red. Very ripe but sappy aromas of framboise and earth. Pure and perfumed in the mouth, with a lovely floral character adding interest to the red berry flavors. Quite young and not yet complex but has the fresh acids and persistence to reward a couple years of bottle aging. Not at all overly sweet.”
