  Color: beautiful medium ruby with blue and grey tones
  Nose: small red berries, rose petals, there is a bit of stone fruit here too, peach and apricot, telling me this is quite young. There are hints of herbs and earth but I would expect those to come out with more time
  Palate: medium acidity, medium to medium-high tannins that grip the gums in the back of the mouth. Structure here is not huge, it drinks well already, and the most prominent feature are tannins. Aromatically, exact same as the nose
  Finish: medium
  
  Pleasant, this here makes me wonder where peak is because it's showing some aromatic potential that is unexpressed yet, but its structure isn't giving me 100% certainty that this goes the distance. Now this is a Pinot noir but it has a pretty detectable tannins (this from a nebbiolo head) so maybe this is what gets it over the hump. Let's see if I can hold and try the other one in 2 or 3 years. This is a great drink right now, let's be clear
