  The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are fast. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like cherry, plum, raspberry, forest floor, mineral, light toast, clove, carnation and honeysuckle. It tastes like raspberry, cranberry, cherry, dust, forest floor, coffee, nutmeg and honeysuckle. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

  Great long finish. Ample fruit. A little heat at the very end. Balance!

  I found the wine to hardly taste like an Pinot. Seemed somewhat hot to me. I would have guessed over 15% alc but label said 14.5. Must be from a warm area of RRV. Not an elegant wine. Yes has dark fruit aroma and flavor, cola.

  Fruit forward while still maintaining a nice mouthfeel. Strong cola and red fruit elements. Good structure. In a really good place.

  This was really shining tonight. This has even improved since the last go 8 months ago. Similar notes again. It had a nice oily texture. There was an added, lovely inner mouth violet/floral component. 92-93
