  Medium body, the nose is very delicate, and needs time to develop in the glass. The palate is silky smooth, ripe cherries with really bright acidity and a long clean finish. This is great drinking and will stay good or develop for a while longer

  Wonderful Pinot. Sous bois galore, hitting the Pinot Nerve, red berries, mushroom. Entering maturity, very well balanced indeed;

  some variation from recent bottles; cola first, then strawberry, herb; this one seemed less giving

  I wish every Pinot I bought was this good or better. It hit the trifecta with violets and roses, the spice cupboard and oodles of bright red fruits cherry and others. Perfectly balanced. Drink up!
