This is a bigger wine than I remember. More brawny. A lot of baking spice and also spices in general. Almost a cumin component. There’s a lot of fruit but it is richer and darker cherry and berry. I’m guessing this will integrate better over time.

Ok back at the place and last time this was a fave. Today less convinced. Seems too light on its feet. Planted on 2013. Black tea, perhaps plums as they say ….20% Stems. Touch spicy, hint orange zest for folks who like spice in their Pinots it is splendid!
