Last one was flawed; happy to get a good one. Nice dark purple color, oak less evident now that it's been open for an hour. Can age a few more years but drinking well now. Cheers!

Very delicate, wel integrated. Seems to have lower alcohol than 13.5%...but that may be because it's drinking well right now.

Light Red Rim with a darker ruby core. Light violets and pine on the nose. On the palate feminine and complex-hints of sour cherry and strawberry. Med/long finish. This wine is both simple and complex in some way...

Fresh young new world Pinot. After a few minutes opened up a bit and some of the 15% alcohol. I think this will be great in a few years although it's well integrated now.

4/28/2009 - Mikealvin wrote: 88 points

Visually, very purple hue's. Right out of the cellar at 55 degrees the aromatics were a bit muted, but after it warmed strong red rose scents along with some wet forest floor and pine needles. Bright fruit on the palate, a bit one dimensional (not much on the mid) but a faint strawberry finish. Light tannins, med finish. Well made.

I see that this wine can age until 2012. Its drinking very well right now. Lots of red fruit (cranberry and strawberry) on the nose. Lovely ripe plum on the pallet. Well made and worth drinking.
