6/1-23 Årgang 2018 Utseende: mørk rubinrød mot blå, litt uklar, klar mot kanten, Lukt: litt støv, jordbær, litt mørkere og varmere frukt, hint av sopp, kryddertoner, sval Smak: kryddertoner på inngang, frisk men avrundet, frukten er noe nedtonet, middels lang, litt klementinaktig (?) avslutning, litt lysere i frukten på smak enn på lukt. 90

It has been a year since I tried this, and I'm still really liking this wine. I think it has come together a little bit more, showing both ian ntense fruity character with cherry and raspberry, but also a more serious character, with some earth, oak and a hint of vanilla. Value for money wise, this really is great at 28 euros a bottle.

A delicious US Pinot Noir. After a 1 hour decant, the nose was full of cherries and spices. On the palate this was a little bit astringent / hot, but I think that will resolve over with a year or two in the cellar. Recommended!

Cherry and dark berries on the nose. Sea and salt. A mix of Burgundy and California pinot character. Very good length and balanced acidity. Smooth CA pinot

This is an amazing PN. Dark red, a little dusty. Wonderful fruity on the palate with plenty of bright, red berries. Some licorice. Complex and very long. Great wine, and an easy buy!

Strawberry, plum and raspberry fruit, feminine perfume, lemon pledge, sweet shop. There is fruit presence, but is not over-extracted. Caresses and resonates.

Excellent wine. Beautifully balanced and in such harmony. Quite concentrated, some complexity and for me a perfect wine for meditation without any food.

Menthol, red currants, tart cherry, strawberry, mineral on nose.
On palate, sappy cherry, tart cherry and touch of menthol as well. Medium+ body, medium acidity and very long finish. Loved this. 92-93 range. Will buy again.

Lovely nose of berries, floral and hint of citrus. On the palate, light with good acidity, cherry and mineral. Tasty finish. Was a perfect match with slow roasted duck.

A big smack of sweet, jammy fruit on the nose, but given attention there are some layers of complexity. Well balanced, with a mineral core coming through on the finish. Too fruity for me, but accomplished nonetheless.

Red fruit aromas of cherry, pomegranate, and strawberry are complimented by earthy/mineral notes of wet stone, smoke, and dried leaves. Bright on the palate with medium+ acidity and a long, smooth finish. Delicious!

Easy to drink and easy to like. Surely more California than Burgundy.

Smooth, with lots of cherry. Clean finish with not a lot of depth but a very pleasant, enjoyable wine.

Had this together with the 2017, very hard for me to distinguish between the two. Underripe dark berries on nose and taste.

Dark fruit, pepper and mineral. Nice acidity. Tastes more like a gamay/pinot blend due to depth of fruit and spice. Wonderful!
