Slightly browning transparent brick red. There's a hint of what this wine once was on the nose with light fruit and a touch of herbaceousness. Nice full viscosity on the palate and a medium-length finish. Ultimately it seems like this wine has been reduced to its most elemental components: Some fruit up front, weight on the palate, and alcohol in the background. Read more...

Sadly with it's slightly browning edge even though perfectly stored this pinot is slightly over the hill. Still very tasty I'm drinking my last bottle over the next 6 months.

Slight leaker...the wine had seeped between the bottle neck and the cork very slightly, so a little bit of oxidation is obvious. Slightl browning rim on a ruby red color. Nose shows slightly oxidized, but also shows some spice and plum. Piedmont-like autumnal notes. Good palate with flavors of tar, plum, and brown sugar. Finishes dry. Solid wine.
