In a good place right now. Plenty of primary fruit with some tertiary notes starting to emerge with a little time in the decanter. Well balanced flavor profile in general.
I think will continue improve for the next 5 years at least.
As seems to be the case with all of Marcus' Pinot Noirs, this is very lightly colored in the glass - you could easily mistake this for a Nerello Mascalese by color. Sweet/ripe red fruits (raspberry) on the nose.
Still pretty taut on the palate, with good acidity & energy. Young, IMO. The nose here is further along in it's development than the palate. I'll leave this uncorked in the cellar for now, and revisit with dinner later.

Opened way too soon, this has the structure to last a long time. Holding my last bottle for 5 more years.
