Starting to move from primary to secondary, more noticeable on the nose with a slight browning around the edge. I enjoyed it but if you prefer your Pinot in the fruity stage now would be the time to revisit any bottles you have.

Really good stuff. Maybe 94. Ready to drink now, should hold up for several years. Deep, back of mouth intense dark fruit and tannins with very good balance of acid and barely perceptible sweetness. Complex flavors. No astringency. Should have bought more.

Great NZ Pinot. Very complex nose, red fruit, cherry, some citrus, orange peel, just a touch of spice. Very balanced on the palate, great red fruit flavor, pretty low tannin though. Very very drinkable and a great value. Would definitely buy again.

Good structure but prominent oak took away from the purity of the fruit flavors.
