These aromas are further enhanced by a touch of spice, adding depth and intrigue to the bouquet. The palate is equally impressive, offering a harmonious balance between fruit, acidity, and tannins. The flavors of red berries and cherries are complemented by a touch of vanilla and a hint of smokiness, creating a multi-layered and nuanced taste experience. The wine's medium body and silky texture contribute to its overall elegance and finesse. The MacPhail Mardikian Estate Pinot Noir is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential for further aging.
