Out of the 4 Moravian Pinot tasted this one and Chateau Valtice 07 are clearly the best although quite different. I would say this Pinot has better potential to improve, whereas Valtice is at the peak. It looks to me quite different to 07 vintage (not as good as 09 vintage for reds) tasted in December 2013.
