Medium-intensity nose of cran-cherry and strawberry with some sweet spice and minerality (fine gravel) and floral aspect (violets). Medium-bodied, high acidity and medium tannins (grippy, almost sandy). Medium finish, with the flavour characteristics mirroring the nose.

The aroma really lacked the earthy and herbaceous element that makes a really good pinot noir. The minerality tends to drive the acidity, which makes it refreshing, but it doesn't make it great. The tannins could use 1-3 years to smooth out a little, but there isn't enough structure for the aroma to develop much.
