Another good Rippon Pinot. Really develops with air. Drank way better on night 2, so I'd decant if possible.
Deep red fruit/cherry/cranberry, kind of on the savory side. Black tea. Backing spices. A potpourri of florals.

Cranberry, cherry and leathery aromas with bright red fruits. A bit less extracted than the following year.
