fairly rich, ripe, but rather crude nose of dark berries becomes a bit floral and more pleasant as airs; simple, rather thin, touch acid, pruny, stemmy taste slowly improves a bit, cleans up but remains a bit gluey. quite crude finish, harsh at first but softens some.

Fairly high toned red fruit, perhaps a touch stemmy? This was hard to complain about at the blowout price, but not as satisfying as other (higher end) pinots from Casa Marin. A little cellar time might improve this.
