Nose was extremely tight, but a bit more showy than the 2015 Horseshoe tasted alongside. Earthy red-fruited aromas with a hint of Twizzlers licorice. Light, tannic, and very tight on the palate. Medium oak. A touch floral. 13.0% alc.. My primary take-away on this wine, as well as the 2015 Horseshoe Pinot tasted alongside, was "bury deep in the bottom of the back of the cellar." I honestly would have struggled to consistently tell this apart from the '15 Horseshoe Pinot --- they presented nearly identically. No point in opening this wine right now unless you're interested in wasting it.
