Be sure to give this a little bit of air, maybe an hour, and I think most people would really enjoy this Pinot. Beautiful ruby color, some oak, but in the back ground and plenty of good spicy pinot noir character.

This wine was murdered tonight. Took it about an hour before the entry of Chinese fortune cookie burned off (very strange initial note that's for sure). Wine poured a light dirty crimson into the glass. Nose is herbal, black cherry, nutmeg. The entry is all black cherry -- a bit acidic, and actually increased after about an hour. The wine was still a little restricted. The mid-palate is a little restrained. At first there was clove and nutmeg here, but this died as the wine started to open more towards the front. The finish is a little acidic and tart. Slightly sweet, a little brambly. Nice wine. Wish I had more, but this was given to me as a gift and I had zero willpower to hold it longer than a month or 2! Probably best to wait 1-2 yrs before trying this one again, as I feel it will present much better.

Mature red fruit equally mixed with earth. Still good, but probably better a few years ago.
