Light cranberry/ruby -> light ruby rim. Nose of cranberries, beetroot, some nice earthiness. Palate presented strawberries, cranberries again and forest floor. Excellent structure & acidity for such a modestly priced pinot. There are some light tannins but the amount of sweet fruit ensures good development. Lengthy finish. Is it Burgundy? No, but it is very much a pinot and at a very nice price.

This needs a few hours to breath and shed the sour nose and finish. After that it is a smooth finish; balanced fruity tart flavors and acidity. Pair or sip; great daily drinker.

Better on Day 1; a bit too tart on the finish on Day 2. See my previous notes.
