Light, young vine fruit flavors mix strawberry and rhubarb, with a tangy, citrus component underscoring the midpalate. It gets a little more interesting in the finish, which brings in seed flavors and a lingering, orange juicy aftertaste.

The LUX bottling has a bit more concentration than the other estate-grown Pinot Noir from Luminous Hills. The fruit carries much the same strawberry/citrus flavor, but with more grip and focus. The tannins are proportional, and the wine is balanced, but thins out quickly in the finish.

Soft and fruity, with a pretty raspberry core of fruit, and a velvety chocolate finish. Despite the 15% alcohol, it seems rather elegant, gently rolling into a seamless finish dotted with peppery spice.

Already showing some bricking around the rim, this estate-grown Pinot Noir mixes spicy strawberry and some residual fermentation flavors of biscuit and blood. Difficult to know how this one is going to age.

Firm and focused, this limited production (98 case) estate-grown Pinot Noir has the muscle and steel frame to be genuinely ageworthy. The tart fruit brings in berry and cherry, framed with supple tannins.
