  Consumed over 2 days (vacuvined), note from day 2. Nose: Medium expressiveness, black cherry, pine needles, black pepper, earth, and Asian spice. Palate: Medium bodied, excellent balance and mouth-feel, black cherry and Asian spice attack, good mid-palate persistence, spice driven lift in the back-end. Finish: Medium-plus length dominated by black cherry, earth, and spice. Definitely drinking near it's peak at the moment showing great balance from front to back.

  A bit improved from a year back, the fruit is slightly deeper and the secondary notes are more pronounced. Very pretty mix of fruit on the nose - strawberries to start but the fruit turned darker with some air. High-tone red fruit across the palate, adding notes of bergamot tea, cinnamon and spice. Pleasantly acidic but the edges are still soft. Very enjoyable.

  elegant pinot, low end for Sotor, but not low end!, controlled fruit, good backbone, great complement to quiche and asparagus dinner

  Consistent with a few weeks back. Red fruits - raspberries and cranberry notes - against black tea. Little green funk too. Slightly tart, nice acidity.
