Our first red of the night, paired with sausage paella. Dark purple and opaque, with solid legs. Nose of blackberries and currents. Rich on the palate with an unmistakable ZING of acidity that softened after 15 minutes in glass. Very enjoyable - even more so after 10 minutes.

Fruit driven Pinot noir. Lots of berries here, but too extracted for my taste, followed by kahlua and overtones of pepper and bitter orange jam. A bit disappointing.

I enjoyed this. Drinking beautifully now. Smooth but with a tiny amount of tannin providing some grip. Red and some black fruit and well balanced. Probably has another 3-5 years to go.

Unfortunately the last bottle of the 2016 vintage in my cellar. Still have a few bottles of the 2017 vintage.
