  Fairly light, though still holding up. Pleasant fruit, but nothing special.

  bryan say there’s nothing wrong with this wine at all. Some of that cherry pinot taste but a lot more muscle than most pinots. Oak and cocoa powder. Good slightly bitter tannic finish. Lee finds an off-putting bitter note that BB doesn’t.

  Some browning on the edges. Fairly long legs. Cloves, Cherry, cola, raspberry nose with a little bit of heat. Even more raspberry on the palate. Somewhat short finish. Improved a little bit on day 2. Excellent pinot.

  Needs around 25 minutes of air before revealing straightforward vanilla-cherry flavors and a medium-length finish.
