NOSE: tight; red-fruited; high-toned; seems to be moderately ripe; hint of bubble gum.

BODY: medium-light bodied.

TASTE: high acidity; savory and red-fruited; a touch leafy/green; medium-light garrigue; touch of coffee emerged when paired with pork tenderloin and mushrooms. Straightforward and easy --- call it "fine" --- not bad, but there doesn't seem to be much in the way of complexity or intellectual intrigue here; not sure one can reasonably expect anything more out of a $30 Pinot from Burgundy. Drink or Hold, even though I don't believe this will magically become excellent with additional cellar time. Gut impression score: 86 - 87,
