Bouchard Finlayson Galpin Peak Pinot Noir 2007; Walker Bay, South Africa

First, the nose smells of excessive toast/oak. Some strawberry notes sneak through, but not a ton. This pinot is very, very, soft...displays little varietal character or concentration. Very thin, some weak berry flavors do muddle through, but it takes too much thinking to discern any noticable flavor at all. Not a bottle I would care to purchase again.
