Drunk alongside the 2010 Charlotte Vineyard for Thanksgiving dinner with v. Grebmer. The wine was soft with just enough kinks to keep it interesting. Preferred it over the Charlotte bottling tonight. definitively ready to be consumed.

Lighter to Medium Burgundy color; very attractive nose: beetroot, some tannin, lively, lithe and charming On palate medium weight (for a Pinot Noir), good finish. An attractive wine. I liked it better than when I tasted it in summer and it presented itself much better than at the Carlton Studio where I tasted it the first time.

Relatively lightly colored; nice pinot nose bite with a bit of barnyard smell. On palate rather light (not thin), soft and round. Enough body to make it pleasant and enjoyable to taste and drink, but definitively short of being serious. I think the wine is in a good spot now and should probably be drunk over the next 3-4 years.

Showing better now than prior bottles. Bright dark cherry flavors predominate, and still well balanced. Drink now.

Very mature color, bricking setting in.
Quite soft and round; had a taste of minced veal with diced tomato.
