  Surprisingly dark colour & chewy. Cola, with a hint of green (it was a cool year). Good lift

  Medium maroon, more purple in it than you'd expect - nice "Pinot" nose - cranberry, blueberry, an acidic note, a savoury note, perhaps a slight whiff of barnyard - palate is light to med bodied, seems almost a titch dilute on the front of the tongue, but it builds across the mid, and finishes very strong - elegant, feminine to be sure, but it does gain as it flows - this is quite light, needs very delicate food, or a good book by a quiet fire - delicate , but tasty and nuanced, the more you pay attention, the more it yields - very pretty.

  An absolute pleasure that will improve with a year or two of cellaring. Where to start, medium color with rich floral nose. This wine straddles the old and new style pinot although I think it leans to old world with its elegance. Red current, berries and barnyard (?) to taste that lingers an incredibly long time. This is not as big as the 2010 and leans to the 2009 - although I think much more complex and balanced. A true gem.
