Pale colour, god nose but less so in the mouth. Alcohol to the fore. Improved a bit over a couple of hours with more complex flavours developing & the alcohol receeding slightly

Dusty with a muted cherry nose. On the palate- a little thin. Flavors of mint, black tea and faint cherry kept it going, but the alcohol was a little to hot and threw the ensemble off balance.

Interesting: first bottle from a new vintage. Decanted for about 1 hour, drunk with duck and plums. Not as dirty on the nose as previous vintages - more 'straightforward than previous vintages - nice fruity pinot nose with emerging farmyard. Good fruit, quite long and some delicate tannins. Made more sens with the duck than without. Will wait a year before opening another.

Mooi rood fruit in de neus, licht aardse tonen en een mooie zachte afdronk

Pale purple color. Good bouquet of berry fruit and spice. Mouthfilling fruit with silky smooth tannins and a decent finish.
