This is the A2 (white label) Pinot, but it is lovely. Has muscle but nice bright acidic finish. So Yummy.

Grassy on the nose, light fruit on the palate, very drinkable, good to cellar.

Hade vid öppning väldigt påtagliga köttiga komponenter. Efter två timmar dekantering tycker jag den bjuder den på klassisk PN bärig silkighet i burgundisk stil, trots lite alko-intensitet. Har klassiska fatdrag. Första årgången för producenten, kan nog ta sig!

2014 Akitu black label Pinot noir. Elegance captured in a bottle.
