Starting to understand what a “young” Pinot tastes like. Still loved this. Gravely nose. I swear I smelled tennis ball rubber. Great dark ripe red fruit early. Light to medium body. Med plus acid. Complex enough but I was expecting more. Lightly dry finish and pleasant low-impact tannin. Slight alcohol in chest immediately after. Decanted 2+ hours and back into bottle. Even better 16 hours later. I had the Premier Cru.
