Decanted 1 hour and consumed over 4 hours. Was good to go after an hour in the decant and stayed consistent throughout the evening. Light style with good blend of raspberry and some minor terroir notes to keep it interesting. A solid 90 points, but at $60, there are a whole lot better NW PNs out there for cheaper. Head-to-head against the Penner Ash, Hyland (94 pts) which, at the same price, was miles ahead of the Palmer.

It is really too bad that this wine is sold out (only 95 cases produced). Very refined and smooth, I think it would have cellared very well. Loved the berry and spice palate.

Good typicity with zippy raspberry, strawberry and some baking spice and a hint of oak. Probably drank a year too soon. OK not wowed.
