Still hanging in there !! I agree with my tasting note of almost 15 months ago. Dry cork broke, but managed to get it out with minimal drama. Dark burgundy color with low clarity. Consumed over two days, remained balanced to the acidic side throughout. I still have one bottle of this vintage remaining in the cellar.

Still tasting really good right now !! A perfect cork after a decade in the bottle. Consumed over two days; this balanced wine showed more fresh fruit on the first day and on day two it had softened with increased depth and integrated complexity. Deep ruby color with no oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas of pomegranate and cranberry. Flavors of black cherry, raspberry with a hint of forest floor. This Pinot Noir has a medium finish and is a balanced and flavorful Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast appellation. This age worthy wine has more life remaining. I still have two bottles remaining in my cellar and will be verifying this review soon.

Drank a few weeks ago...definitely solid, nobody would mistake this as anything but California, but pretty well balanced, fruit still going strong, no rush to drink.

Dark purple on the verge of black (mega purple?). Nose has sweet spice notes, with dark berries and sweet cherries and a hint of vanilla. Flavors match the nose. Nice mouth feel with a limited finish. Very nice pinot. Glad I have more!
