First bottle opened was corked. Second bottle: Dark color with ripe, meaty aroma. Juicy fruit which came off as overripe. Didn't work for me. An atypical experience with a D-G wine.

This exceptional Angel Camp seems to be coming into its own. More so than perhaps most of D-G's offerings, this one seems to have a fair amount of spice in its profile. This particular bottle lasted very well into the day after opening, proof enough to me that the 2021 community end-date is substantially off - so putting forward 2025.

Bought a bottle at a restaurant in Lake George for a company dinner and had a glass to taste. PnP. Earthy, light/mid bodied, a little tightly wound and young, showed good stuffing underneath. (90+)

8 years old, a little more age than most Pinot that I drink, but perfect

Blackberry, blueberry, slate, tea, cinnamon. Medium body & acidity. Medium-long finish. Drink now or in the next 2-3 years.

Smoky strawberry and plum and caramel/vanilla on the nose. Hearty thick fruit for a Pinot. Smooth finish.

Lusty and brooding with abundant oak, licorice and dark plum.
