  Nice wine. High acid, tart, cranberry and ash/minerality. Light to medium bodied. Wish finish was a bit longer, but still okay. Good drinking, not heavy mouthfeel.

  Completely different from the row of Oregon pinots I had just gone through, this is much darker, in color and in fruit, with lots of peppery black fruit, meaty tannin, grippiness. Needs time to open up if you're going to drink it now. Very structured.

  oh this is cranberry tartness to the Nth degree but in a delicious way, so refreshing [going to see how this turns out tomorrow]
  
  Day 2, Mellowed but so tasty in a juicy way, very fruit driven but not fruit bomb, like my better half said this needs to be in a cocktail, which we can take as a compliment

  Solid pinot noir whixh evolved nicely over 2 hours. Started muted and closed with tart reddish berries. Nice balance, subtle flavours, rather rounded tanins with some minerality. It opened up gradually making the wine more expressive and intense. Very happy I brought this back from Ontario. Drinking well now, the producer suggested not keeping more than a couple of more years.
