| From New Zealand. Purchased for $36, in Sydney. Opened during dinner with kybo yesterday.
Rather dark color for a pinot. Very tight, with tart black cherry flavors. Some earthy notes. Glassy texture. Disappointing. I was expecting more. No real signs that it will improve. 82P.
Cheers,

| Hi Jeremy,
No, it was not decanted, but the bottle was open for at least 3 hours before we tried it. We then drank it over the course of 2 hours and it never opened up.
Cheers,

| | Interesting- will avoid, I haven't tried the 2000 and now I won't intend to. Thanks for the notes. | | | |
