Powerful forest fruit and wild strawberry aromas persist on the nose. The vibrant ruby red colors hint at a young wine, but the taste reveals a remarkable maturity. Elegant soft fruit flavors are already finely integrated into the structure of the wine, as is the oak, adding a subtle but powerful complexity to the flavor and providing a nice mid-palate and soft finish. This is a light smooth wine, easy to drink at any time of the year and exhibiting typical character of a young Pinot Noir.  Vampire Pinot Noir is well suited to Venison and and game dishes, and is equally well adapted to pasta dishes featuring basil and tomato sauces. It can be enjoyed as an aperitif or as an after dinner wine with Belgian milk chocolate and blue cheeses.
