  This has really improved over the last year. Didn't take notes, but this was a nice cool climate pinot, medium bodied, elegant but with some concentration as well. Cherries and other red fruits on show, but lots of savory notes as well. Nicely done, should improve over the short to medium term (A-).

  Pours a medium to dark ruby in the glass.
  
  On the nose: savory aromas of sour cherries, a bit of soy sauce, iron, and cloves.
  
  On the palate: super intense on the palate, sour cherries, silky structure, ripe raspberries, iodine, herbs and spices. Really long finish and all in all a fantastic wine.

  On the nose: cherries, candied strawberries, Niagara earth, and iron.
  
  On the palate: round, medium fat, some salinity/minerality on the finish.
  
  A deeper, more profound version of the Jordan Village.

  Quite light and stern when first opened, but 2 hours of air gave it more body and depth. A medium bodied, elegant Pinot, with cherries, beetroot and cranberry, and a nice velvety texture. I think this will get better with further aging; give it air if opening soon (A-).

  Clear pale garnet/brick; clean medium nose of jammy red cherries, jammy strawberries, soil and dust - bordering on confected; dry; high acidity; medium plus tannins; medium plus alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus flavour intensity; palate is tarter with addition of cocoa; medium plus finish; drink now or in 5 years; a little underwhelming given all the hype
