Dark and inky, with legs resembling a cab. On the palate there is raspberry, cola, rose petals and rhubarb. The acid is abundant and the tannins give ample support throughout the long finish. Make no bones about it. This is a powerhouse for a Pinot and has at least 10 more yrs and maybe even 15. But while enjoyable, it's nowhere near ready for prime time. So do yourself a favor and don't even think of touching it for 5 more yrs. Be patient and let it do its thing.

Aromas of cherry and dust on this wine, still rather young. The bottle seemed considerably improved with decanting, probably could use a few years in the cellar.
