It can stand to lay down a little longer but nice now. Hint of cherry with a shuttle licorice after taste.

Cherry, cranberry, raspberry, currant, oak and loamy earth. Good structure and moderate tannins.

A fine bouquet. Wonderful taste! A beautiful Pinot Noir that’s perfectly balanced. Exactly what’s I’d think a Pinot Noir should be! Love this older vintage too; just the right amount of time, I think. Let it breathe too

Tasted cheap and not well bodied. Felt flat and not enjoyable

Pungent at first, but a good happy hour wine.

Color is really light, mix of ruby and bloody grapefruit. Nose of wet mushroom, spice, fresh cranberry, pomegranate, and strawberry ice cream. Taste follows the nose with addition of substantial zest, good mix of acidity and sweetness. The taste is actually not light but flavorful. Aftertaste shows some more spice and zest. A bit too much zest. Other than that, quite nice.

A strong scent of dog poop upon opening. Went away after 30 minutes. Then it was very average.
