  Soft tannin, fruity, keep it in cellar still.

  Over the coastal range. Lots of savory fruit on the nose. A touch smokey.

  Juicy, in nose there was strawberry and hint of huckleberry. Palate followed nose plus there was soft tannins and acidity.

  Tasted blind in VV.
  
  Luminous, translucent cranberry red color. Quite reductive nose with aromas of new year's eve - i.e. lots of gunpowder smoke along with some slightly sulfurous stinky tones and a hint of burnt rubber - with aromas of crunchy red fruits, some earthy Pinosity, a little bit of sweeter raspberry fruit and a hint of licorice. The wine is ripe, juicy and moderately full-bodied on the palate with smooth flavors of sweet dark berries, some smoky burnt rubber character, a little bit of raspberry and a hint of alcohol heat. The wine is moderately high in acidity with not tannins whatsoever. The finish is somewhat stuffy with some reductive character, burnt rubber, a little bit of sweet black cherries and a hint of brambly raspberries.
  
  A soft, unsurprising and pretty reductive Pinot Noir that feels like it is lacking quite heavily in the freshness department due to the stinky, smoky notes. The wine might come across as somewhat more pleasant and enjoyable with some breathing, but I doubt air would help much in regards to the soft structure and simple flavors. Pretty uninspired an effort, not really worth the 14,90€.
