Sweet and flamboyant in nose. A little too sticky and spicy in palate. Strawberry, cherry and flower nose are attractive and quite intuitive… just like coke. But I don’t expect pinot noir to be sweet and sticky like this. Just not my thing.

Deep purple ruby (almost opaque). Dark, brambly fruit on the nose. Something floral too — rose or violet? Baking spice and a little forest round the nose out. On opening, the palate showed a ton of oak. But everything came together in the glass after an hour. There’s still structure here. Wine drank even better on day two. There may be a year or two of life left in this one.

Popped and poured. Lovely nose out of the box of red fruits and flowers. The palate is medium bodied, transparent and pure. Ripe raspberry, herbs and tea. Elegant but persistent. With time in the glass however some alcoholic notes develop. Drink up soon. This won’t get better.

Medium body (14.1%) dark red wine. Tight plum and dark cherry fruit with a hint of strawberry. Nice finish.

Drinking very well. Cool climate fruit predominates.
