Nice body, good structure, I might even give it some credit for a glance of acidity... but LACKING SO MUCH on the nose and the palette with regards to fruit, or classic pinot noir spiciness that I'm not even sure I plan to finish my glass, let alone the bottle. Watered down kool-aid anyone?........ Update - actually developed after opening. DH been working on the leftover, but I finished the end so I could recycle the bottle, and hmm... not bad
(Still won't buy again, though)

Tannins oak, berries, leather. Serve slightly chilled and allow to breathe. Best decant. Nothing too complex
