Earthy, barnyardy aromas lend a funky complexity to this broad and indulgent wine. Notes of black tea, tamarind and sour cherry mingle with moderate tannins and decent acidity that gives the wine a lift on the palate.

Sourced from Gap's Crown, the 2021 Pinot Noir is a much more balanced wine compared to the previous vintage. It retains a bit of lifted tarry aromas but does offer fresh cherry fruit and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied, with good freshness and lift throughout, it delivers ripe raspberry, cinnamon, and pressed flower notes and is a charming and approachable wine to drink young.
