24-Hour Tampa Blitzkrieg; 2/27/2016-2/28/2016: Ruby colour. Pretty but subtle nose of roses, eucalyptus, menthol, and softening black cherry. If the nose is subdued the palate absolutely explodes but fades over time. Slightly madarized. It's alive but this is its last legs for sure. Roses.

50th Birthday Celebration Dinner with Wine (Chez Schmidt - Chicago IL): Big, ripe and lush, which led to a healthy discussion of whether or not this wine was 100% Pinot Noir, on which there was not tablewide consensus. Still, this was very charming with great classically Vosne spice.

This is a very impressive wine. Chocolate nose. It is moderately fresh but not a daisy by any means. The quality and balance is incredible, a wine that does not call attention to itself but is pure and shows gret quality.
