Not much on the nose, a bit of cedar, rose and soft dark fruit. Medium body with raspberry, black cherry and some oak finished off by fine grained tannins. Nice balance of New World and Old only lacking a bit in complexity, but overall very nice.

Popped and poured, enjoyed over 4 hours. Nose a bit muted after opening, by the end showing more forest floor, earthy notes. Very fruit forward and concentrated, much closer to California pinot than classic Burgundy. With more air, revealed more structure, minerality and depth. Nice wine and very enjoyable.

Drinking well now, but could still get better. Still some red fruit left, with some secondary earthy, forrest floor notes starting to develop.

Cant keep my hands off of these. Nice medium bodied pinot with plenty of sweet cherry and earth. Goes down way too easy.
