On Day 1 this was just OK but on Day 2 it had opened up and was meaningfully different/better. Of course will not be confused with Burgundy but regardless really bright red fruit flavors with nice acidity and length. QPR is stretched but regardless I will look back fondly on this one after the second showing.

Nothing wrong with the wine but nothing too special either. A few notches below what I recalled from an earlier bottle. I got this one recently through a 3rd party so provenance could play a factor. Or it's age. Drink up.

Light red in color. 14.5% ABV. Charming nose of bright red fruits, cloves, cola and baking spices. Light to medium body with exquisite acidity. Exceptionally elegant but not lacking for power. Cherry, cranberry, pomegranate and earth on the palate. Tremendous length on the finish. Just a great Estate Pinot Noir from Rochioli that undoubtedly bodes incredibly well for the Single Vineyard Pinots. Best over the next 1-2 years.

Was a bit off and tight at first but decanter brought out the fruit left in this classic bottle
