I had high hopes for this #leyda #pinotnoir given the advertised bottle label ratings. Opened the screw top last night, let it breathe for 20 minutes - but what a letdown. Flat taste and closed aromatics. Suspecting it needs oxygenation, today out of the wine fridge I poured a glass. The aromatics have come alive - aged sandalwood, faded tobacco, dried violets and distant fruit. On the palate, less impressive here, light body, tobacco and toasted oak too loud on the tongue, light acidity, longer tannin-forward finish. QPR at just under $20 not quite good enough.

Very mild. But very good with food builds body.
