A 100% Pinot Noir that feels like drinking hot lava straight from the mouth of an erupting volcano. The comics type label can easily deceive: It achieves a quality found mostly in such noble grape varieties that the French describe as a "steel fist (or punch) in a silk glove" or in other words immense power from a relatively low alcohol content, all served on concentrated and silky consistency. The palate is alive, pure, superbly clean and immaculately balanced red wine, you'd expect this level from far more expensive Burgundy examples. We recommend opening about 10-15 minutes before serving and enjoy observing how it slowly develops in the bottle over some hours (and in fact a few days, effortlessly). Excellent ageing potential.
