August 17, 2022 - Great flavor
November 25, 2021 - Thanksgivings with the Stevens family
Light fruit with a smooth finish. Great with Turkey
December 20, 2020 - This has aged very well.
October 3, 2020 - PnP through Nuance wine finer. Reddish brown color. Light cherry, little soda on the nose. On the palate, soft cherry with a little dirt and grit on the palate. Medium finish. Aged well. 88+pts. Aloha!
April 23, 2020 - 13.9% alcohol; heavy foil, real cork -- which broke while I was using a screw opener, but with 1 mm of wine penetration or less; long, long legs, medium red/brown; nose with a bad drumbeat in the background, but also telling me that the wine is not completely gone; vinturied and tasted at room temperature, 25 degrees C; has a strong metallic taste in the background, especially affecting the back of the tongue, giving it an undesirable finish; at this point, I'll probably have to say its corked and that I waited too long to taste this 10 year old Pinot: tant pis, schade, the tasting latches on to traces of having been something very much better
December 1, 2018 - May be past its prime. Dark ruby color with fast legs. Nose of sour cherries, little bit of minerality. Sour cherries continue on the palate but are muted. Mild tannins there as well.
December 6, 2017 - Pleasant enough. Nice sour cherry, strawberry and cola flavors. Not over the hill but no where to go but down.
December 23, 2016 - Muted sour cherry fruit with an earthy all-around taste. Could be past prime.
November 16, 2016 - This is a good daily drinker. Reliable but not stellar.
April 9, 2016 - Similar to prior note. Drink now
