Flowers, 2003 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

This wine is very dark and has an intense aroma. Sadly the taste doesn’t match this intensity, you do get plenty of flavor, cherry and currant dominate. I was expecting, actually hoping for something like the 2002, which had a very explosive flavor. This wine is also very soft at this point in its life. The winery suggests that you can cellar it for up to 3 years, but I would drink it now.
