Vinicultural Society


Otelia's Selection

Pinot Noir / 2021

In the glass, this Pinot Noir presents itself as a lush, garnet-red beauty, exuding inviting aromas of raspberry, radiant red cherries, and a subtle note of earthy mushroom. The wine's texture is elegantly light, revealing flavors of tart rhubarb and crisp cranberry, subtly embellished with a touch of dusky black pepper and earthiness on the finish. It's a luscious and harmoniously balanced wine, culminating in an alluring and seductive finish.
