Hoping this will get better with more age but don't really think so. Overextracted and the fruit elements not really in harmony with one another. The finish was a bit bitter as well. I am emphasizing the least desirable elements because others sharing that are not used to better wines were raving.
A hazy ruby/light crimson. Pepper, tea and spice on the nose. Remarkable for its silky texture, lively and bright, leading to a nice bright finish. Characterized more by spice than fruit but what fruit appears tends toward dark cherry.

Dark cherries, mushrooms, and wet stones. A soft, but moderately long, finish.

Really good Pinot. Had a touch of spice to it and a little less fruity than many Pinots. Enjoyed after meal with no food.
