By the glass at the BA Lounge, LHR. Freshly opened It’s been a good 4 years since we had this at the same environment and this has improved a lot from the 85 we have it back then. Egg on our face as this is now very pretty , soft and well mannered and albeit still a very much new world rich Pinot , it also has a charm and an elegance. Much much better 89

Changed my mind. Maybe because of decantining this time? i like the style of a more powerfull Pn. This is my main stream of taste. Still I concider the price a little too high

Decanted for 30 minutes. This is rather fruity with a bit of gunpowder on the nose. Big for a Pinot Noir on the palate, with a touch of vanilla. A bit strong on the oak I'd say. Nice enough.

Appearance: pale ruby. Nose: medium plus intensity; aromas of pomegranate, red cherry, dried dates, rhubarb. It’s developing. Palate: dry, medium plus acidity, medium plus tannins, high alcohol, medium plus body, medium plus flavour intensity. The finish is medium. Overall, it’s a very good wine. Drink now, not suitable for further ageing. Good fruit intensity with decent length. Very high QPR!

A full body Pn. Balanced med body with an integrated acid finish. Somewhat raw and unpolished in the midpalete. Not the silky style that you would expect from a Pn. Not worth the money
