Default Pinot Noir is too tannic

Dear Tom

Thanks for your info, Same problem with a lot of things like this, I am
afraid to add too much and have nothing left at the end.

At least I know what I will do with my Pinot Noir 2004, make too different
styles, one lighter, more fruity and the other like this more tannic to age.

Thanks again for info.

Cheers
Marc
