Wine is fully evolved. Oak is completely integrated . French spice is competing with dark and red fruit. Some tobacco and cola notes pleasantly fill the middle palate . Drinks very smooth. Love it. Would not wait any longer.

Pours dark. No technical flaws but nothing overly flattering. Actually thought higher of this wine until I opened a Bruliam sangiocomo which was hitting higher in most if not all regards.

PnP, but better after 15 minutes of slo-ox. A very smooth and balanced wine. Medium bodied with lots of dark cherry, some earth, some spice, and totally integrated tannins. Not a fruit bomb, but a very pleasant dark red fruited, balanced pinot. Could hold for a couple of years.

I think OKWINE66 notes are spot on - really enjoyed this tonight with some roasted salmon.

Totally agree with Buddybaker comments. This is over-ripe and not the kind of classic pinot I enjoy. But some will love it.
