Blind tasting no4. Should have let this decant for awhile first because it was super reduced - sulfur and eggs. Honestly would NEVER have guessed burgundy or Pinot noir. Just so saturated and dense. Probably missed some of the common flavors because it was still fresh.

Slightly cloudy opaque purple with little rim variation. Heavily extracted. Bone dry, medium tannins, medium acids. Red berries and chalk with a medium to full body. As it opened we got compost and olives. Nothing to indicate Pinot though…

Dark cherry, leather, pucker of tannin. Lightly Oaked. Hint of tobacco astringency. Texture is medium to thin- but I've not let it breathe. Medium legs. Ruby with an edge of brown.
