Ripe Pinot notes with raspberry and a hint of charcoal. Sappy stalky and sweet. More fruity than farmyard with soft tannins. Still developing at 11 years of age. Good wine. 2005 vintage. Tasted again on 12 Dec 2016 this time showing a touch of oxidisation. Very tawny rim. Cannot see the point of cellaring if I had any left - last of 6.
