Had this one for a little while, which is probably different compared to other 15 Pinots which have been consumed right on the spot. This wine is massive for a Pinot and perhaps a tiny bit of a divergnece for Farrell? Nice wine that has a lot of youthful raspberry, almost an orange kind of tang, some mint, cola, tannic finish, and rather balanced from start to finish. This producer is not a particular favorite of my wife, which is great considering that it usually means the bottle is all mine! Youthful now, but for the true expression of this wine, it needs more time. I feel that this wine is going to be at the top of the hill in 2-3 years, with the capacity to go probably close to 10 years with proper cellaring.
