Hopefully I just opened it too soon. I mean way too soon. Loaded with heavy upfront fruit, ok, but follows with out of balance cutting alcohol that grips the throat.

This wine shows outstanding structure and fruit. After two hours of decanting and drinking for an hour, it is still a wine settling in and is very confused at the moment. It is a big Pinot with quite a bit going on. Give it at least two more years, if not three, in the bottle before trying. I only had one bottle and am going to try to grab another to see how it opens up and settles down.

Very full bodied, rich, ripe berry California Pinot. It has a lot of life left. Very impressive wine!
