Dark red colour, season oak and dark cherry with spice nose, rich cherry plum spice forest floor palate with oak backnote- carried by resolved tannins, good length and medium acid

Not as bright as the 2016 Kusuda Pinot i drank alongside, has more of an orange tint as this is gaining weight and secondary notes. Dark cherries, some truffle/forest floor and sweet oak on the nose, leads into a large rounded mouth feel of luscious dark red fruits, meatiness, coffee notes and spice. Wonderful length - more than the Kusuda but that’s an unfair comparison as very different styles. Delicious - worth drinking up.

Perfumed nose of cherry and spice. Acid seemed higher than the fruit at this stage and could do with some time to develop more secondary characters. A good wine but seemed to lack the depth I look for in a GC

Rusty red colour. Expressive cherry and spice nose on pour through a Coravin. Delicious savoury notes with tasty fruit and grippy edges. Enjoyed.

Drinking now (only just). Big cherry nose, lots of grip on the palate. Drink or hold.
