Decanted for three hours; a medium bodied wine that boasted more freshness than I expected for the vintage. Very ripe, almost hedonistic, black pinot fruit supported by super ripe, teeth coating and ultimately drying tannins. Very long length. This will improve for a few more years at least. I would trade a little of the hedonism for a tad more elegance. Enjoyable nonetheless. (15/20)
