Community Tasting Note

JRockEsq Likes this wine:

Friday, July 22, 2022 - Method: pulled out of fridge, Coravined and sat for 20 minutes; Burgundy glass

Look: pale garnet

Nose: craisins, light cherry, black tea, cedar/oak, light dried herbs

Palate: cranberry, orange peel, black tea, light pine; long finish of black tea, leather, dried herbs and light bitter herbs; medium body; low+ fine tannin; medium to medium+ acidity

Overall thoughts: This is drinking very well and showing a good amount of sophistication. The not-too-full body and acidity makes this quite lively and fitting for a Pinot. Very nice, unobtrusive tannins that still provide nice structure. I'm not the biggest cranberry fan, and I get some here, and the finish might be just a touch more bitter than I'd ideally prefer, but there is no doubting the quality in the glass. Great wine!

Update: It did open up a bit to reveal a bit more fruit, more of a pomegranate note, which contrasted the earthiness nicely.
