Solid first bottle of the night, easy silky smooth with dark cherry but not overly sweet

One of the best Pinot I've had in a long time. Spicy and potent but still sweet and silky.

Very drinkable, nicely balanced fruit & tannins, very delicate, did well in the decanter over an hour.

Dark cherry predominant flavor, not too dry and well balanced. Dr. Wife likes it but not a must-have.
