Monday, November 5, 2012 - This wine is in a good place right now. I always thought the 2005 vintage, with it's higher tannins, just needed more time to mesh, and I think I might be right. This bottle has both fruit and this fabulous weight. At seven years, the wine tastes 'full' somehow, thicker and substantial. All the components-fruit, tannins, acidity-have all come together impressively. The fruit is bright berries, that's the best I can describe. If you have any of these left, try one now because it won't disappoint. If this is how Dumol pinots age, then I'm in for a treat when some of my single vineyard bottles age. Recommended. Feels like it can go a little while longer, say 3 years?
