90 Points

Monday, July 11, 2016 - (bought on release, exc cellar, perfect fill. Pop and pour). Initial nose attractive and palate a bit lean. Within 15 minutes nose filled out to smell, I swear, like a great Nuit St Georges. On palate developed very full pinot fruit, rich and palate coating, layered, but never clumsy or hot. Red fruits, brambles, delicious. Marked down because of short finish however. Spouse and I fought over who got the last pour! Overall beautiful nose, rich palate and well matured fruit, but short finish. Much better than last bottle from about 5 years ago. Another example that Shea is an excellent vineyard. If I have any more will drink up as doubt will improve further. May age or hold longer in magnum format.
