Starts with a very earthy component but no fruit. The palate is smooth on the mouth feel but again doesn't define any strong flavors, similar to the nose. May need to be paired up with the right food but this wine isn't showing much at all. May be that this baby is done.

Intensely ripe, alcohol-driven nose, followed by incredibly jammy fruit. So rich, yet kind of hollow on the mid-palette, and a bit one dimensional. Shows the hot, challenging nature of the vintage.

This bottle was over the hill. Alas, I had neglected it for too long.

9/2/2011 - cybergod Does not like this wine:
Unbalanced, hot and stemmy aromatics (with a touch of volatile acidity) meets rich, over-ripe fruit on the palette. Not my style of Pinot whatsoever.
