I tasted this along with a few other Pinots. Similar vintages but varying price points. Compared to the TMBT 10X which shoots for the same money, I like the shape of this that bit more - more meat on the bones so to speak.
It's a bit rustic but a bit refined all at the same time. A delicate spice is interwoven yet it doesn't wrestle the attention from the fruit. Good weight in the mouth with a persistent fruit drive keeping me keen. Oak is played well but the mid palate interest has me coming back for more.
Drink now to five years.
