Thursday, December 6, 2012 - The color is garnet and is translucent but dense with very little fading on the rim. The aroma is barnyard covering up candied red fruits of cherry and cranberry, with currants, dill, that contribute to a pungent aroma. The taste is earth with herbs and minerals, briary red fruit, tea, peppery spice, smoky bacon, and tobacco leaf. The tannins are velvet and are pretty evident and seem mostly fruit based. It makes me think I am drinking this bottle in the manner of infanticide as the tannins are far from integrated and almost fierce for a Pinot Noir. This is a very interesting wine and I hope to wait a few more years before the next bottle.
