"Pale ruby verging on purple in colour. Very herbal and medicinal nose, a bit green, with black plum and brown spice. Dark warming spices – cardamom and clove on the palate with high acidity. Finish isn't quite as long or vibrant as La Source 2022. (SCJ) 13.2%"

"From vines planted in 1995 and 1996, the 2021 Pinot Noir Summum has pure, layered scents of cranberry, raspberry, juniper, shiitake mushrooms and flint. The medium-bodied palate offers concentrated layers of red fruit, herbs and earth. It has a fine, tea-like astringency, vibrant acidity and a long, floral finish."
