This richly layered Pinot Noir delivers flavors of dried cherry framed by notes of blood orange that are met on the mid-palate by hints of baking spice that linger through a lengthy finish. Lovely aromas provide a nice mix of fruit, spice and herbal character with notes of dried cherry, potpourri, sweet tobacco and dried herbs.- Gary Hayes/Savor NW
