  My Last bottle of this and it has been the best cleanskin I have had. A little herbal and sappy on the nose along with some cherry and red berries. There's some cherry, with a hint of sweetness and a fair amount of acidity that keeps things clean. Tannins are fine and well hidden and there is a touch of bitter stems that adds interest. While it doesn't have the gravitas of some of the more serious pinots that ere about, it has been a very enjoyable to drink over the course of the last decade

  I'm liking the complexity this has at this stage of it's life. It's a little lighter than some in the glass and presents elements of cherry and strawberry with some hints of undergrowth. Some sweetness, bitterness and sourness are all interwoven to make a satisfying drink.

  A more delicate style of pinot. Perfumed with evidence of spice and some stems. Some sour cherry and plums, but with a lot more underlying complexity. Great for the price.
