Tuesday, December 15, 2015 - I really tried to give this one a chance. Opened and poured a glass, got industrial cleaners on nose and palate. Poured through the Vinturi into the decanter and swirled it a lot. Things barely got better. It tastes like industrial cleaner. There is no indication this is Pinot Noir. If there is any saving grace, a lot more swirling reveals a cherry, cranberry fruit with typical tannins, that is still swimming in cleaning fluid.
