January 5, 2017 - Här var det fullt ös! Mycket och mera av det mesta. Kryddigt och bärigt, med inslag av både röda, mörka och söta och lite torkade bär (jordgubbar, hallon, sötsyrliga körsbär, lakrits) med stor kropp, balanserande syra och runda tanniner. Bra längd! Gott men knappast elegant; mer ursprungstypiskt än druvtypiskt...

March 20, 2016 - no notes and so this is a rough estimate, but calling this a classic well made - but not fantastic - new world pinot with loads of body and this one wasn't simply "all fruit"... nice and the guests preferred this to the Jadot Bonnes Mares '98 i brought as well

Dry, Medium+ acidity, medium tannins, medium+ intensity and a medium+ finish. Even though the wine is fairly round and inviting, there is a slight tartness to the acidity giving the wine a nice fresh touch. But there is also a bit of alcoholic warmth to the finish that I'm not overly fond of.
Great quality wine but not a style of Pinot that gets me going.
