Shared with pat at Selkirk manor to crlebrate the end of the work week. This is enjoyable wine but I can't be as enthusiastic as suckling. Full nose, fruit forward on the palate. Mostly red cherry fruit. Not much structure. Presents well now. Doubt that it will improve.

Slightly high-toned and bright to start, with the alc peaking out, there's some earthy milk chocolate notes to round out the soft cherry. With air it really softens up and that chocolate becomes less earthy and more pastry, but there's a nice coffee ground element as well. A lot of wine for the money, though I'd rather it not be so soft.

Probably would have been better earlier.

This vintage's good days are in the past, I'm afraid.

Very good, a tad hot. Nice sumptuous Pinot. A little earthy with cherry. Well worth it
