Lovely Pinot Noir, well-made and smooth. Subdued but clean cherry start, and smooth tannins in the finish.

How amazing! A wonderful 2003. When I opened the bottle, I thought to throw it in the sea 😇. But after some air it really opened up. It’s a clear deep ruby colour. Quite strong flavours of red fruits. Some fig and other dried fruits. Dry, medium tannin, medium alcohol, full body. Not a truly long finish. Outstanding. Developed. I’d drink it now, but it might even improve over time.
