Sunday, March 4, 2012 - Its colour is very clear and juicy-lushy-richy dark red. Very stinging! My overall fragrance impression appears to be unusual for a Pinot Noir. Plenty of fresh and dried dark cherries freshly grounded coffee, mushroom antipasti, some mild juniper and a bit’ee of dark choco penetrate right up to my olfactory receptors. Maybe some animal odour as well. Anyway, a rather unusual, but exciting, Pinot so far. The taste communicates something some obvious fact to me. This wine is still far too young! My fault! I have just been too curious. The acid is immensely strong and the tannins are infantile like an ever growing senile wine geek. Whatever that last association might mean. Maybe an auto reference….OMG, I better shut up now ;-)! The different flavours are dominated by dark, spicy cherries, some blueberries, plenty of autumnal features, mushrooms and a diffuse black-earth-herb-combination. Unfortunately some impressions of raisins are undeniable. Besides the hyper strong acid the main disadvantage of the Pomino. The concentration is well proportionate and surly not distressed by too much alcohol. Make sure not to enjoy this Pinot too early. WAIT!
