Surprising fresh and bright for it's age. Red berry fruits with nice depth and with an interesting touch of cedar, dust and perhaps a hint o bramble or forest floor. Medium body with a smooth texture and a long finish. Subtle complexity that gives the wine a very interesting character. Not a lot of grip and I thought it was better as a sipping wine than with food (it didn't quite match up with the duck breast I had with it). I would be drinking sooner rather than later.

Popped and poured and served it along a spicy Jambalaya. The sweetness of the red fruits were a perfect counterpoint to the sausage and spices in the food. A nice balance of acidity and fruit. Not a lot of grip or tannic bite to this wine, but a nice lingering finish. sadly my last bottle.

- Garnet color with slow forming legs and aromas of cherry, medicinal, bacon, cedar and strawberry. It's balanced and has flavours of strawberry jam and bacon with a medium body. Polished texture with a long finish - Sweet cherry, almost sweet cherry stew nose,

Nice soft easy drinking pinot w/good balance of fruit, minerals and cedar. Light cherry red with cherries on the nose.
