  Agree with Isaac D. Heaps of fruit. Absolutely delightful. Drinking beautifully now.

  Takes a while but after some time it's coming together. Berry festival with predominance of strawberries, rather light. Tea? Intriguing. 92-93. Drink or hold.

  I disagree with the below sentiment. I don't think it is closed down - if anything it is so expressive of dried tobacco leaves, and brown spices that seem to just have this really beautiful length to them. In my mind, this is a WoW Pinot. It is also slightly cloudy in the glass, so it hasn't been 100% fined, but I love it for all that individual, unique flavour.

  Medium ruby in the glass, still edging on some violet hues. Strong savoury-steamy nose with the fruit leaning on the wall. The palate is smooth, but still a bit closed down. Acid plays the main role and lifts this wine's fruit onto another level. Long, savoury finish. I believe this will be much better when drunk in a few years, so leave it laying if you have a chance.
