Tradition comes from the west side of the vineyards and this 2011 shows quite a bit of the finesse and elegance Pinot Noir is noted for. Aromas are a touch reductive with violets, raspberry and strawberry also peeking through. Palate thankfully shows none of that reductive nature, instead it's all fruit-driven with raspberry-strawberry, dry cranberry-cocktail, touches of cherry and violets ... very pretty.
