Translucent, slightly brownish tinged red. Nice warm spice and cherry nose. Bit thin on the palate, cherry, cranberry. Fine tannins, good acidity, decent balance. Finishes short and harsh. Seen better days.

Still a big wine, with lots of dark fruit and concentration. Unfortunately, it doesn't have enough acid to support the fruit and it comes across a little flabby and monolithic. The nose with some savory elements is better than the flavor in the mouth, which is a little one dimensional. It needs to be a little more lithesome and graceful. If you got it, drink it. It won't be getting any better.

Second corked Pinot from this winery from 2003 vintage out o about four bottles purchased. Small sample size, but do they need to change their cork supplier?

Deep red color. Rich nose of red fruits and spice. Good concentration without being overbearing. Tastes of cherries and raspberries with hints of chocolate and coffee. Pleasing finish. A solid enjoyable wine.

Yeast on opening but fleshed out over a garden walk.
