Color toward garnet, semi opaque low intensity on the palate soft red fruit. Strawberry on the palate, not much secondary flavor. High acidity, medium tannins. Better tonight than in the past, acidity a bit more subdued.

Aerated and decanted for around 30 minutes. Barely translucent ruby color with a slightly brick meniscus. Bright cherry and crème de cassis on the nose. Fairly well balanced on the palette with chewy fruit and some minerality, with noticeable tannins. Slight bitterness on the finish (like burned caramel, which I find typical of RRV pinots; more balanced than most.) All in all, a very good wine, but a little disappointing for the price point.
