Community Tasting Note

    June 24, 2020 - Very light, aromatic, and not nearly as fruity as I expected. That left the other aromas and flavours in front, which was a pleasant change from most of the Pinot I drink - even the more "Burgundian" examples from the west coast.
    The only downside was that this didn't open up as much as I expected over the few hours we had it open. It opened up somewhat, but probably would have done more opening if it had lasted another couple hours.
