Consistently phenomenal. Same progression as previous - On opening, lots of dark earthiness and strong tannin. As it sits for a while, it gives way to wonderful, bright fruitiness and vibrancy. If you wait long enough, these elements come together to create what I think is the perfect new-world pinot experience. If a wine can be a steal at $80, this is it.

Quite good for $20 CAD. Fruity, full and earthy, there is a lot going on here. On opening, it had a bit of sour funk to it, but this may go away with some air. I look forward to revisiting this tomorrow.

I echo all of the positive statements below. Classic Bordeaux style, but with a little more fruit. Great nose, great palate (licorice, dark fruit, lush mouthfeel) and a decent finish. Excellent value wine. Recommend!
