Monthly Wine Dinner: Cherry, plum, meat and some nice aromatic floral notes. Good freshness to the palate, with nice acidity and spice. Flows well, though the structure isn't really there for extended ageing - I'd drink this now and over the next 5 years.

Give this wine some time to open up. Nose of sawdust, sandlewood, red cherry, a little bit of smokiness. Palate is rich, balanced. Tart cherry and strawberry. Mouthwatering finish, lush. Took about 2 hours to really start showing itself. Fantastic. This is what I seek.

Straight off the bat, the aromatics were great. Spice, red fruits, perfume. On the palate, its very elegant. There is a nice acid profile, and its beautifully balanced. Initial flavours of "crushed ants" seemed to add complexity, but this gave way to reveal very typical pinot fruits and profiles. It's lovely drinking right now.

Light, ruby red; soft, sexy nose, cherry, a hint of green and a bit of stank but overall still very primary; taut cherry, rich and viscous, balanced, beautiful, great acid spine; called Beaux Monts.
