Mostly earthy at this point, mushroom, cranberry and a bit of orange peel, quite savory. Nice aromatics. A fine example of aged OR Pinot. Not getting any better, but no rush either.

Library release. Considerable amount of fine sediment, careful decanting suggested. Perfect cork, minor penetration only. Garnet color, slight bricking at the rim. A reticent nose, classic Pinot Noir aroma. Savory, cherry on the palate, forest floor, mushrooms, a little leather and spice. Medium acidity, and smooth tannins are well integrated.

Remarkable freshness. Mild citrus notes on a floral nose. With air became more savory, with some forest notes, with elegant cherry and strawberry notes. Back end was a bit astringent and narrow, but really broadened and gained depth through the evening and into day 2. Showing some mature elements but still rather some primary expression. Definitely a wine that impresses you more, the more time you spend with it. Really impressive showing.

Light orange color. Soft red fruit flavors with distinctive acidity. Pretty but not substantial.
