Darker example of Pinot Noir, ideal candidate for aging. It has everything it needs for development in cellar, high extract, tannins, alcohol (although very high it does not stand out). The wine has so much intensity that it would be even better if aged more in oak, it looks it was in aged in bigger barrels, not barrique.
