It is predominantly fruity lighter type of PN, which is reflecting difficult 2010 vintage. It is nice break from heavy fruity reds. To get rounder and better I would leave it at least 3 years to age, it has nice acidity to hold it. However this was single bottle that I received from my business partner.
