It's a nicely balanced bottle of burgundy with a good acidic spine. Fully mature but can easily go on for a few more years. It's not amazing or particularly memorable, but a well made everyday wine for food pairing.

AC's BBQ and heirloom tomato tasting--a nice spicy pinot with an assertive character. Not particulary nuanced or deep, but a decent casual wine from a stellar but $$$ vintage...

Bright, clear ruby with a mauve wash. Aromas of dark fruit and earth on the nose and extending to the savoury and fairly simple palate, with good concentration and weight. A mild upfront spiciness asserted itself with time and air, while a soft acidity carried the wine to a medium-length finish. Tannins are well-hidden behind the fruit. Stood up nicely over 3 nights.
