As others have said, a very pleasant surprise. Really the only fault is the short finish, and maybe a missing wow factor. Nose is berry and spice, almost Italian. Perfect structure with enough tannins to give it plenty of body but still a soft and supple wine. Drinks on the fruitier, bright berry side of pinot. Very easy to gulp. Everybody would like this.

Now here's a surprise, lifted dark fruits and spice w/ complexity & depth. The fruit is quite sweet but it has good energy and length. Enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

Medium body (13%) wine with surprising complexity even though alcohol content is a bit lot. Different fruits in mouth were a pleasure. Excellent finish. This is causing me to re-evaluate my preferences in pinot noir.

Blue and red fruits on the nose, cherry, blueberry, blackberry. Grippy, grainy, stemmy. Spicy and herbaceous.

Very savoury, needs a few more years in the cellar. Very good with 3 hours of air minimum prior to consuming.
