The taste is like strawberry marmalade. Strawberries are there, but with the tartness and richness of marmalade, rather than the pure sweetness of jam or jelly. Add the flavors of truffles and a touch of bacon fat, with the classic pinot noir arc, with a mild initial attack, then huge growth through the finish. The mouth feel is pure silk.
