Nose was initially musty, which blew off to reveal soil strawberry. On the pallet, the mouthful was thin, but not unpleasant. The flavor was Tannic and Hott, with prominent black tea ans Others have mentioned. After an hour or so, this settled in nicely. I think the kind of citrus peel and black tea elements made this really interesting.

Medium low opacity, clean and ruby with little to no thinning toward the edges. Nose of red fruits, smoke, tar, vanilla, compost and a certain meatiness. The palate has grippy chalky tannins with medium plus acidity showing roasted notes intermixed with cherry and other pure red fruits. It shows the alcohol just a little too much. Very nice.

The color is a deep, almost opaque burgundy. Sweet vanilla oak, strawberry and black tea on the nose. The body is rich with tannins well calmed down. Acidic and a little green on the finish. Much tamer than my last tasting three years ago. This should be in the transition between lively youthfulness and deeper aged character, but I'm not sure there's much more to evolve here.

Tasty Pinot, light on the nose but nice fruit tones and a little more body
