Primary fruits, but lacking concentration, needs another 6-8+ years.

It was pretty right out of the gate. With air, it became more open and expressive.

👁 Deep ruby
👃 Very aromatic. Strewed black fruits - dried cherries, prunes, cinnamon.
👅 Medium acid, medium tannins. Round mouthfeel. So incredibly easy to drink. Fleeting finish.
✍️️ One of the most beautiful expressions of Pinot I've ever tasted. She's like a maiden, so very youthful and alive.
