The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry jam, cedar, raspberry and red currant. It tastes like cedar, stoniness and cinnamon. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has high acidity.

initial nose of fruit, cherry and slight berry. initial taste of unspecified fruit and earth after some time the alcohol began to show (15% on the bottle) as the heat subsided to the aftertaste cherry and some pepper appeared the flavor further evolved and the heat turned into just a hint of chocolate and vanilla, although not as much choc. as I remember from a bottle over the winter the after taste was long and the wine had a full mouth feel nice color. I had it open for about 30 minutes before serving, and enjoyed over 2:30 hrs.

Wonderful Pinot. Dark cherry, hints of cinnamon. At 15% alc this pinot can hold for a few more years, but is absolutely beautiful now.

A wonderful pinot, full bodied but not overwhelming. Great variety of flavors. Yummy.
