Wednesday, August 5, 2020 - DougLee's recent notes inspired me to pull the cork on a bottle that I've had on deck for a few weeks now. This bottle was purchased on release and has been sitting undisturbed in an underground temperature-controlled cellar since. Simply put, this is just stunning right now. Shows a ethereal youthful nose, very Morey-like, with forest floor, black raspberry and cedar spice. As in its youth, this still shows lively acidity, with cran-raspberry and brown sugar flavors and a slightly chewy finish. Gorgeous stuff, and one of the more Burgundian CA pinots I've tasted. I'm not sure why I stopped buying these after the 2010 vintage (well, duh, limited funds), but if I could go back in time I would double down on these, as they have aged really well. Thankfully, I have two more of these.
