  shared with pat at selkirk manor. Celebrating covid vaccination and being able to socialize a little more. I continue to prune the cellar with a focus on bottles with expired drink by dates. Fortunately, this wine continues to show well. Deep color. No sign of age. Lots of cherry and spice. Perhaps at its best now. Should have bought more. Will look for recent vintages.

  I would agree with Bacchus, even after a few more years in the cellar, this bottle was not over the hill. Screw top; full pinot nose;Montmoreny Cherry on the palate; acid and spice pecan on the finish. Paired nicely with baked salmon and crab meat, asparagus and a chocolate brownie dessert.

  shared with pat at selkirk manor to celebrate the end of the work week. chose to open this bottle because a recent note from another member indicated it was over the hill. this bottle proved to be in sound condition. starts off with a racey nose and not much follow through on the palate. after thirty minutes of air, the wine comes alive with robust and voluptuous flavors. spice box enveloped by sour cherry. full in the mouth. benefits from further aeration in the mouth. lingering finish. will wait six months before drinking again.

  might have been better a couple of years ago but it's over the hill now.

  Nutmeg, rhubarb, cinnamon & sour cherry notes. Cherry and rhubarb with a strong sour quality in the finish.
