Pretty much as per the label. So, nectarine, citrus peel, minerality/wet stone and lightly toasted nuts. Ample length. Builds and improves with a couple of hours of air, not really a pop and pour proposition... back at the start I was more 87.

Somewhat muted nose of citrus, lemons, appricots and just a touch of honey.

On pnp straight from the fridge it was quite muted. Nice sweet honey like flavor with definite hints of the classic riesling profile and just a touch of acid.

To be completely honest, that first taste was quite a let-down, as I didn't get any complexity, no finish, and not nearly as much as acidity as I was hoping for.

Thankfully, after about 15 minutes in the glass, as it warmed closer to room temp, this wine really started to show nicely. The acidity really starts to pop as a perfect balance to the sweet riesling. Some additional nuances and more citrus and honey notes started showing on the palate and pulled through to a short to medium finish.

Glad a gave this a few minutes to open up. I usually prefer my dessert wines somewhere between fridge and cellar temp, but this definitely benefits from being closer to room temp. This is also a very young wine, and I may just have to buy some more to see how this will take to some aging.

For those looking for a comparison to the Jana Angel Eis, they are very similar in their basic flavor profiles. I would put this more in the honey apricot range with a slightly more viscous mouthfeel, where as the Angel Eis shows slight more of a cleaner crisp floral spectrum of the rieslings. Both are very good wines that I would recommend to anyone.

Ruby red and transluscent. Earthy with surprising tanning levels and some spice.

Sour..No depth, no fruit, no nose. Very disappointed in this. I've had better Pinot at the $10 price point at Costco.

This initially had a lot of heat on the nose and on the palate it was tight with restrained fruit. Several hours of decant blew it off and opened the red berry taste, thought it was still pretty earthy. Nice acidity. A little disappointing compared to what I remember of the other Tudor's I've had, but still fine after giving it plenty of time to air out.

Excellent after about 10 minutes from pop and pour. The initial sips were rather disjointed and harsh but after a tiny bit of air it started to come together. Light purple colour, almost transparent colourless rim. Very bright acidity and flavours - pomegranate and raspberry. Hint of sweetness on the finish (not RS, but fruity sweetness) and not much oak influence. Huge minerality also - very lively wine. Not much earthiness or mushroom is my only kvetch with this one, but it's such a bright and extracted yet light wine that I don't actually miss it that much.

After another 20 minutes or so, some complexity is coming out, including something more gamey and a touch of earth - almost like pine forest.

The acid level in this wine is huge - I bet it has at least a decade left in it.

PnP at cellar temp it's all spices, earth, and a bit of cherry on the nose. Something savoury as well. Palate matches the savoury note with some nice mushroom. The extra time has done well with this wine.

After some air and warming up a bit it's even better. Excellent bottle - wish I'd paid closer to the community value for it, but c'est la vie.

Typical Pinot garnet color, pretty transparent. Smell: Perfumed red berries. Taste: Wild red berries, perfume, subtle amounts of pepper and coriander. Finish is dominated by the perfume flavors.

Not sure if I could disagree more with oog on this one. We drink and LOTS of Pinot Noir from every appelation we can get our hands on and this bottle is very nice. Older world style and I like the pepper on this one relative to most Pinots we drink. Had this with a Thai dish and it rocked!

Open for about an hour -- Nose: Virtually none, some light fruit. Taste: Very little flavor. Like sour cranberry juice that has been very watered down. Nothing to it. Very poor QPR.

Certainly old world in style, which I dig. Spice, cola, touch of barnyard. Moderate cherry fruit. Good acidity. Nice buy at $20 in PA.

very different from 06 Kosta Browne. Light in color and body with smoke and red berries aromas and in the mouth. Much lighter than KB with a more elegant structure. Enjoyed very much.

very disappointed in this...very little fruit to much tartness and acidity. At $55 a bottle I'd be real upset...thank goodness it's not what I paid.

Light bodied, black cherry flavor, dirt and tar, good acidity, more of an old world red burg which I prefer. Gave this plenty of time to breathe as I wanted it to get better but never got to a full harmony.

On first opening it benefitted from a pass through the vinturi, which brought out more earth and fruit, but I think it's actually best just left to breathe. It opens up slowly but oh so nicely that it seems a shame to try to rush it. Great aromas and flavors all well balanced.

The Tudor is running out too fast! Send more! Quickly!!  :-D

Top notch California Pinot. Excellent acidity, deep fruit without being big and Cabernetty, or oaky, and made to express the grape, not please bombasts. Along with the Inspiration and Rasmussen one of California's best that I've had. If you like European Pinot Noirs, this is a California wine you will appreciate.
