  Big and bold, and the boldness (on night one) dominated some of the finer expected pinot flavours. Night two, much more delicate.
  
  Hold.

  Briney, cherry, raspberry, charcuterie and herby nose. Full berry and vanillin/honey palate. Long, lush and sweet. Very good. No decline or development imminent.

  Night 1: a bold elegance of red fruits and berries quite jammy. Long and plenty of acidity and structure.
  
  Night 2: a bold elegance of darker fruits and berries, some of those earthier tones coming through and jam has gone. Acidity reduced, structure is based more on depth of flavour.
  
  Night 3: fruit dropping away, more of those earthy, coffee tones.
  
  Based on this, I wouldn't touch for another few years and it should hold and hold....
