Concentrated

2004 Sea Smoke Southing Pinot Noir
Shane’s Notes
June 20, 2006
$50

We opened this one and decanted for 45 minutes. The massive aroma consists of perfume, vanilla, wool socks and raspberry. The palate is perfumey with a very concentrated flavor of tangy, vanilla-blueberry. It lacks complexity but we can’t overstate the massive concentration of the palate. I wasn’t sure what to make of this one. Pinots are usually light-bodied but this one bordered on medium-bodied. It was so rich that I don’t think I would have recognized it as a Pinot.
