The first of these I've tried after 6 years in the cellar. Absolutely superb - the best Pinot I've had. Subtle, yet elegant with prominent fruit. Terrific upon opening and kept getting better - the pairing with Cornish Hens brought out the best in this wine.

Tart with lots of crisp apple. Young and needs to be drunk young. Good value, though a bit on the sweet side for me.

Wonderful - silky smooth and very drinkable now. Should age well, too.
