Can a wine be light and complex at the same time? As I look over my notes on this Lauritzen Pinot Noir from Tawse I have to answer my own question with a resounding “yes”. It kicks off with gentle violet notes then gives way to cherry-vanilla and wood-smoke; the mid-palate shows an array of red fruit while the finish tickles the back palate before disappearing rather quickly ... that all said the wine is light yet complex and very enjoyable.
