This will not be to everyone's liking. It's a Burgundian pinot noir. There are some very funky aromas in the nose, and fruit is not really one of them. But I found the nose very complex and intensely pleasurable: barnyard, rosemary, moss. Less pleased with the flavors: a bit tart and austere.
Drink it soon or give it to someone who will: I wouldn't expect it to improve from here.

At Heirloom Cafe in SF (great spot). This was a wine by the glass selection.
Heavy medicinal funk on the nose, masked the fruit which seemed to be middling at best. Debated whether it was corked, restaurant claimed it wasn't (probably correct), they were good about replacing it.
Have had good experience with KW wines in the past, this was really bad.

Thin. Had lost all of its fruit. Mediocre at best.
