Excellent body for 13 yrs. Poured from the bottle after 30 minutes, little sediment. Great flavor. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

fruit dominated with earthy notes, silky, mouth filling, enormous length. Nice acidity . I doubt if this wine will last an other 5-10 years, might become dull, now a great pleasure to drink.

Pinot supper (Bitton Restaurant, Erskinville): Quite dense and broad...aromas of black fruits, forest and earth, spice, liquorice, leather. On the palate it's thick and dense with black fruit, flour textured tannins, broad on the palate (medium plus body). Quite fresh acidity as well. An impression of bulk. Still with plenty of life. Long. Full on. Not what I'd usually go for but pleasant enough.

Very classy; bouquet deep, but a bit closed, but in the mouth it gives a lot of dark red fruit, even violets. The wine is bodied and polished, but by no means one dimensional, the aftertaste is very long, the tannins are fully ripe and the alcohol is well hidden. This is close to the top. Drink now or the following 3-5 years.
