Cherry, ripe plum, fig, mild spices, and as the label described “gamey and barnyard”. Palate has a syrupy feel but is balanced well by the medium acidity. Smooth and very fine tannins. For less than $20, this 8-year old Pinot is a steal.

Sapid, juicy, clear as a bell and delicious. Soft tannins , beautifully balanced. Some extra complexity and it would be perfect.

Initial dry muskiness on the nose - aptly described as chicken shit elsewhere, disappears substantially within 5 mins of breathing. Medium bodied, good fruit, easy on the mouth. Go to for a sure win.
