Wow - best I have had in awhile!! The nosecwas so expressive of ripe dark fruit and leather with some nice herbs. Flavors followed with black cherry and blackberry with acid notes of ripe cherry. The tannis were perfect and layered leaving a beautiful long finish of black cherry and cassis. Chocolate notes were present but the cherry notes prevailed. Almost a perfect wine!

Still young but hit my likes! Nose full of dark plum and leather with a sweet herb. Flavors followed with ripe dark plum and blackberry. Luscious!! The tannins were present with a good balance of acidity which made the finish long and delectable with those ripe fruits. Love this wine!!

The age gave it a kick! Nose was full of red fruit- strawberry, raspberry and red plum and flavors followed with red fruit! Delicious!! The acid balance and red fruit flavors were fantastic! A great Pinot! Nose had a sweet essence that was delicious but alluring! This was a treat!
