  On opening this I was surprised to find a wax disc on the cork beneath the capsule….it looked like overkill. Then I noticed the 2016 vintage cork. Makes sense to avoid confusing the retail customer who might otherwise ask why the difference netween the cork and the label. Not an issue to me, people need to use surplus stocks
  
  Anyway, an earthy style pinot, much, much better when we got to the cheese course

  Needs to open up. Age will probably help this wine.

  The nose reminds me of a Pommard from the Sonoma Coast. Full bodied but not overly ripe. Nice fruit, gentle dusty tannin, mineral backbone. Very good and wish I had more.

  Needs 55 minutes in the glass to fully wake up. Strawberries, spices, flowers, ripe red plums, blood, minerals, hint of grilled chicken, fairly long aftertaste. Enjoyable. [Tasted from both the Conterno and Jancis Robinson glasses. The glasses differed in the details, but led to the same overall reaction. The description merges both glasses. I am perhaps being a tiny bit stingy in the score, but not by much.]

  Really nice, basic pinot. Good value - nothing spectacular, but long finish and not too sweet.
