Vinous

(from vines planted in 2000 on soil featuring some high-pH pedogenic lime, which is essentially soil-created lime that has nothing to do with the marine origin of limestone): Healthy bright medium red. Musky aromas of strawberry, dark raspberry and coffee show are lifted by a rose petal element. Broader and less sharply delineated than the Calvert release but shows excellent fruit sweetness without any heaviness. (Walter describes Cornish Pont as normally a softer style of Pinot, and less crunchy than the Calvert, owing to its proximity to the lake.) Showing very well today owing to its fine-grained tannins and ripe, harmonious acidity. Finishes with subtle rising length.
