The 2019 777 comes on strong like a fresh bouquet of roses and violets! These initial aromas give way to classic pinot red berry notes, raspberry, cherry, boysenberry and, with additional swirling, the wine flexes its aromatic muscle adding exotic moss, pine sap, eucalyptus, vanilla, and cinnamon. Now let us take a sip and enjoy the nicely rounded flavors that bathe your whole mouth with cherry, cranberry, cinnamon, clove and black tea. Take note of the texture, smooth and silky, and the finish with some mild tannins balanced perfectly with mouth-watering acidity. This wine will be a fine companion for a night that might include seared salmon or, later, strawberries dipped in good chocolate. We think you have earned it all.
