  Smooth, jammy profile. Not obviously pinot, but similar to other fruit-driven PNs from South America that I have tastes. Palma violets on the nose and palate. Viscous with some balance. Ripe, stewed fruit swamps the profile. Nothing obviously out of place, but an absence of subtlety, balance and elegance detract from the wine. Moderate finish that suggests enough structure to support food, but not enough for the wine to develop into something more interesting.
