Double decanted but gave this wine about an hour in the decanter from previous experience. The extra decanter time removed all edges and provided texture, power of darker fruit and refined but gripping tannins on the finish. Definitely a Cab drinker's Pinot.

Clear medium ruby. Clean nose of medium intensity with aromas of cranberry, red cherry eucalyptus, flint, just a hint of vanilla, bell pepper. Wine is youthful. On the palate it is dry with medium acidity, medium tannins medium alcohol and medium body. Medium flavor intensity of redcurrant, white pepper, wet stone, hints of earth, dried cranberries. Finish is medium minus. This wine is good but not very exciting. Drink now or can be aged further.
