should have read my last tasting note and drunk this sooner. leaning a little too much towards the brown sugar and less towards the cherry now. losing some acidity and verve, but still a tasty beverage. prefer a little less cola and more complexity, but this is a nice weight for a pinot and has enough acidity to be nice with food. For sure drink up.

Intense and pretty big. Brown sugar and dark cherry. Smooth and ripe but seems to be losing a little steam. I would say that these need to be drunk up. Recent experience with a 2009 Loring Russell and 2009 Kosta Russian river would say that these wines are best 2-3 after vintage and not long agers.

Has the DNA of a typical LWC. Big cherry fruit and baking spices. Great drinking.
