93 Points
Thursday, February 8, 2024 - As are most of the RM Pinots, this is a beautiful wine….perfectly balanced with extraordinary flavors. … with many good years ahead. To the reviewer who gave it a 90 score, I can only say that you must have been storing it improperly.

I've had the occasional bad bottle in a DFW batch, but that would be a Flaw. When we score on CT (I've had a mild argument with another user about this, who actually set me straight), we are ostensibly using the CT scoring system, in which a 90 denotes an excellent wine, and even an 89 denotes a very, very good wine indeed. Your 93 and your subject's 90 constitute the range of Excellent wines: better than Very Good but not Outstanding. On this you agree.
