Dog Point
Dog Point Organic Pinot Noir
Bright red fruit aromatics, delicate florals. Pure, focused and supple. Elegant, juicy plum and black cherry flavours are accented by black tea, spice and licorice notes. Gains momentum on the finish, where shadings of cedar and date bread add another level of richness.
