2009 Ken Wright Horizontal - Nathan's 1st Birthday: My favorite of the 2009 Ken Wright Pinots (shocker). More depth, it's the complete package in terms of not lacking anything compared to the other site specific expressions

At a party we did six different vineyards of the 09 vintage. All in excellent shape and drinking well. Many people’s favorite of the six. Deeper complexity of fruit and earth.

From half-bottle. Mature wine moving towards past maturity. Losing fruit and body. Aromatically dominated by quite nice tertiary aromas. Soft acidity. The finish is dominated by drying acidity, weakening aromas and a highly present and unpleasant alcohol. Unbalanced and declining. Drink up.
