Going Away Celebration and Dinner for David (The Panhandle and Nopa, San Francisco): Magnum. Medium ruby, slightly cloudy. Ooh, what a sexy, smoky, black cherry nose. Full for Pinot, the fruit persists but has definitely taken on some secondary nuance, and there is an underlying tar component and a sense of soil on the finish. Excellent, complex, well balanced wine that calls to mind the dreaded "B word" while drinking it.
