I'm a huge Dunn fan. I have a vertical from 1980s to 2008. Had a bottle of the 1998 last week (that I had purchased several years ago at the winery and went straight into my cellar).
It was thin, and off at the open, and got worse from there. Oh well. Opened a 1986, and it was spectacular.
You just never know.....

We did a vertical tasting of this 1975, along with a 1982 and a 1996. the `75 was the star. Opened in the cellar two hours before tasting, and brought out to warm up a bit 45 minutes before tasting. Beautiful cherry notes, did not taste faded at all. A great experience.

We let it breath for 5 hours, and it stomped the 8 other higher priced Oregon Pinots in a blind tasting.
