Italy vacation Part 1; 10/22/2017-11/5/2017 (Florence and the Tuscan countryside): Light ruby; highly aromatic, red berry fruit, light and elegant, spice; palate is light bodied, red fruit, some minerals; medium finish. Excellent high altitude Pinot noir, will age well for a few years. 90 Really fleshed out nicely with an hour of air. Even more complexity, denser now. 90-91

Popped and poured. Clear, pale ruby. A clean nose of sweet red cherry, raspberry, earthy minerality, vanilla oak. Faint but distinct Chinese herbs manifested with air. Medium(+) acidity, medium body, medium flavour intensity of raspberry, sour cherry, earth. Medium(+) soft tannins, medium(+) finish. A touch simple especially on the palate. Don't think this is one for aging.

Young with a tightly knit structure, not giving away much right now. Floral nose, tight. Dark cherry fruit on the palate, earthy. Focused and upright in style. There's a lot of potential here, needs time in the cellar to soften up.

Simple et vif, un peu trop acide à mon goût cependant.
Petits fruits rouges et poivre avec
une touche florale. Court en finale mais rien n'accroche.
