Bright red cherry, raspberry, and rose notes lead the nose, with a savory edge that adds dimension.

The palate is medium-bodied and balanced, showing fresh acidity, light spice, and hints of earth, tea, and cola. It reads as polished and varietally true, with enough structure to keep the fruit in check. If you like a restrained California Pinot in the style of a lighter Côte de Beaune, this will feel familiar.

Serve slightly chilled with roast salmon, mushroom pasta, or herb-rubbed pork tenderloin.
