Pretty and clear like a pinot. Nice aromas. The first sips were really beautiful. As it sat in the glass lost a little fruit and the finish showed a hint of heat. A very pleasant wine.

Medium garnet with ripe plums and barnyard nose. Open an hour, lightly dry fruit, light acid, medium fruit, ripe plums, little tannins with stone fruit bitters. The ripe fruit is a bit flabby and appears to be on the down slope. After another hour or so, it's starting to show improvement and taking on the acid and fruit of a nice pinot. Given another night and showing some funky elements of leather and earthy tart fruit, watermelon, nice acid balance keeps this rockin'.

Quite light in color, almost reminiscent of a Pinot Noir.
The nose is earthy, brambly, celery seed, super nice funk, a little bit of a lifted/VA note, subtle, not overdone.
Palate is deep, sour cherry, raspberry, savory, mineral, with nice acidity. Deeply sweet and sour, light but well balanced.
Very enjoyable!

Acidity keeping this nice and fresh. PnP, consumed over two nights, this was drinking nicely through to the end.

PnP. Still going strong but is a touch hot as others have noted. Wish there had been more of this as I would have definitely bought a lot more.
