Overall, an excellent white Burgundy, great QPR at $20, likely 2-3 years from peak.

Similar to my experience 5 months ago. This is a fruit driven SRH Pinot with a wonderful spicy backbone. I don't see this as a long ager, but should evolve and drink well over the next 3-5 years.

Consumed over two days (stored in Somm du Vin), note from day two. Appearance: Clear, medium ruby-garnet extending to the perimeter where a thin line of edge bricking is apparent. Nose: Clean, medium+ with developed aromas of dried fruit - black cherry & blueberry, black olive, mushroom, bacon fat, and violet - quite complex and interesting. Palate: Dry, medium acid, medium tannin is soft and round, medium+ body, medium+ intensity, 14.2% abv with developed flavors of dried dark fruit, black olive, and white pepper with a medium+ finish.
Balance: Excellent
Length: Excellent
Intensity: Excellent
Complexity: Excellent-Outstanding
This is in its perfect place right now. Showing tertiary characteristics - soft rounded tannins, dried fruit, and mushroom but still has a solid acidic backbone and fruit vibrancy. Wonderful wine - drink'em now if you still have any.
