This is just getting into a stage of tertiary development that I like...but I think it has lots of stuffing left. No rush to drink it well stored. Red fruited with pretty veins of minerals, spice and orange zest. There is a deft balance here between lift and power...very pretty.

Mainly Pinot — work folk tasting/social (Home): 2/12. Very Beaune. Similar to a bottle almost two years ago. Minerally, red fruited Beaune character. Tannins pretty much resolved now. Redcurrant and a touch of orange zest. ***

Mid ruby. Quite bright and fresh, relatively finely chiselled red fruit, a touch of orange peel and some fine-grained tannin through the finish. A little pinched initially but opens out overnight to show a more rounded and softer wine. Decent. ***
