Big, big wine, high ABV that makes it a bit sticky. It also makes the fruit (purple/black) very sweet and all over the place. Decanted for 2 hours, drank half bottle and then back in fridge, still the same wine day 2. It was not my style so I won't rate it.

This has imporoved over 1,5 years since last try. Notes as last time but the balance is even better. It's the more crowpleasing plush style of pinot than acidity-driven.
