A big, luscious Pinot. Really juicy and inviting now - maybe a little bit simple - though with a hint of acid (just) keeping it together, it's not all fruit. I don't know if this wine will age well - could get ungainly - but it's quite tasty at this young age.

Pale ruby colour.
Medium intensity on the nose with cherry, chocolate and mushroom.
On the palate high acidity, medium silky tannins, medium body, medium finish.
