Petrol taint on opening which in glass disappears although other aged aroma remain. Still sharp citrus fruit in the mouth which indicates can go more years, but also a wine to drink now with food that needs a refreshing sharp edge and some acid to balance.

Low to medium tannin. Dark fruit jammy-ness but not overwhelming. Balance is good but no real length in the mouth. Fruit intensity is waning and suggests wine is for drinking now or even yesterday.

A pleasant wine but without the complexity i expected. more like an AUS pinot noir inits fruitiness and sweetness.
