A lighter pinot. Plenty of red fruit, tasting younger than its age. Moderate acidity, medium finish. Good to sip in its own but also paired nicely with cheese.

The cork was in excellent condition, no leakage and no noticeable flaws. But the wine, when poured was a very brownish color and tasted bad. Let it sit in the glass for about 45 minutes, tried again - no better. The bottle was stored in our cellar, which has good storage conditions, so cellaring doesn't appear to be the problem. It was apparently just a bad bottle of wine, either because of a flaw in the wine (possible but not terribly likely) or the bottle was contaminated when bottling occurred (more likely), i.e. likely spoiled by bacteria.

Light in color. Red fruit and tart berries, spring flowers, nice herbaceousness and minerality. Medium plus acid provides impressive definition and lift. Tangy and piercing mouthfeel and finish.

Go West! Tasting (The QEII Centre, Westminster, London): Broad brown profile, woody, ripe red berry, a touch of oak, med body and tannins, med finish. A strange one
