"Highly aromatic, with scents of cherry, exotic spices and potpourri.

Plenty of flavor is packed into the midpalate and finish of this midweight, captivating wine that features black cherry and black raspberry fruits embellished with a deft touch of oak and a bit of umami. Structured tannins are slightly astringent at this early stage.

The finish is one to celebrate, with extraordinary black cherry aromatic persistence."

Rusty Gaffney, Prince of Pinot

"Displays a dark ruby color, rich plum and black cherry fruit, with a medium to fullbodied mouthfeel, and a velvety, lush, texture.

To me, this is clearly the best of all these Pinots from Spell, a fullbodied, lavishly constructed and plush wine that should drink well for 78 years."

"Baby pink in the glass, the color of this rosé may mislead you into thinking this is a
lightweight. But no, this is a surprisingly hearty pink wine, with weight on the midpalate and texture round and supple.

Cute to look at, but no pushover. Solidly structured, with fresh acidity cleansing the palate, the attractive, young red fruit flavor of the wine is restrained, coquettishly quiet.

With proceeding sips … the sharp, bright bouquet of young raspberry, pomegranate, peach and pink roses reminds you this baby knows how to have fun too."
