this is probably the best DG Pinot yet (i have not yet broken into '13-15) ... like drinking a bit of art ... not sure how much longer this state will persist ... i will be drinking more '09 this winter

drank with '08. i thought the '09 better with more structure and some spice, but my wife thought '08 better and claimed the '09 flat ... score is mine (not average). if i look at the two bottles, the '09 is 1 glass less than the '08 - a good indicator.

I've had several of these bottles since June 2012. I think it's in a really good spot now - tastes better than it has previously. Aromatic, smooth, layered, complex.

Dark and rich. Great depth of fruit and flavors. This wine is in a very good place right now.

Chewy and yet silky. Dark berry compote with nice long finish. Enjoyed with bacon wrapped pork tenderloin and chimichurri sauce. Delicious!
