Tasting Notes - BlueStone Lane Pinot Noir 2006

I have a soft spot for these guys as they really do strive to make decent highly drinkable Peninsula wine for under $20. The 2006 started out in shaky fashion: hard edged with a cut of astringency and some ripe simple fruits. Did open up though, revealing softer sweet cherry fruits matched to some tart acid. Needs time perhaps, given the lick of acid doesn't make for the most pleasant of drinking right now. I'll keep the faith however.
