Wednesday, December 28, 2005 - Dark purple in color. This was such a big wine with incredibly concentrated dark fruit flavors, caramel and a touch of vanilla. Even with the immense structure of the wine it was unmistakeably fine Pinot Noir. It was so balanced that the 15.6% alcohol was barely evident. The acidity kept it finishing clean and may point to improvement in the celar. "Young and brawny". [$48 on release and should benefit from time in the cellar. Decanted one hour and needed another.]
