So vital but also fully resolved, very gradually riding off into the sunset. Sappy dark berries, sweet cedar, forest floor. Elegant

A beefy style of pinot (the '90) with some of the old roses and beets scent of older Burgundy.

MAGNUM - Wowser... Great structure, intense fruit, elegance and perfume. Quite ripe but a seriously well framed drop :)
