Definitely past its prime. Dried, austere and slightly off balance. There is nice acidity, however, as with most decent or better pinots that make this wine very food friendly. Drink up.

Some ripe strawberry on nose, moderate spice, but more prominent earthy aromas. Blacker fruits on palate, but also more earthy flavors. Just on the downslope of its evolutionary development, so I'd be drinking this soon.
