Tasting Notes

Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2015 Calvert offers expressive black cherry, black raspberry and anise notes with suggestions of lavender and dried Provence herbs. Medium-bodied, soft, supple and packed with black berry flavors, it finishes with great length. Drink Date 2017 - 2021

Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate (228), December 2016

The crisp cranberry and pomegranate flavors are juicy and vibrant, with details of green tea, fresh earth and white pepper. Cohesive and harmonious on the long finish. Drink now through 2030. 909 cases made.

MaryAnn Worobiec, Wine Spectator, May 2017

Fragrant, aromatic. Really rather refined and lovely. Gentle Pinot Noir rather than dramatic. Great delicacy – for New Zealand. Very long.
