Still completely primary with red cherry notes dominating. Low acid, light tannins on the back end. Frankly surprised this wine still has life in it. Dusty red fruit, very simple palate. Drinkable, but nothing of interest.

Underrated, really good, drinking well, on point. Looked cloudy (after standing for two days) but tasted bright. Paired beautifully with seared Ahi. Nose of plum blossom, Indonesian spice, sandalwood, forest floor, black tea. Balance: of red and black fruit, acidity was not fine, tannins integrated. Berry compote, rich mouthfeel, and bright long trailing edge. Open 30 min. Chris agrees 92.

Classic Pinot with muted berry flavors, low tannin and alcohol
Decanted an hour and served on the cool side - recommended.

Classic Pinot with muted berry flavors, low tannin and alcohol.
Short finish with fruit mellowing fast.
