Well, the CT drinking window (2014-2017) was clearly wrong on this one. 11 years in and still going strong. Light bodied with raspberry flavors and forest floor mixed in. Doesn’t seem like it’s over the hill, but I don’t know if it will improve at all.

Spiced cherry, smoke, sweet oak, some orange zest and finishing with earthy tones. Might be described as a california style oregon pinot. Nice medium body, surprised this is just 13.5%. Delicious now.

Carafé 20-30 minutes avant le service. Nez: Fraises, légèrement vanillé La bouche suit le nez. Faible acidité. Finale moyenne. À boire dans les deux prochaines années? Accord avec mets peu épicés.

Lots of red fruit, some fine-grained tannins and a touch of forest floor. The red fruit was quite tart. Best with our pan-sauteed mushrooms. Also good with the roast rack of lamb leftovers. Perhaps better with 1-2 years of bottle age. Right now not a rebuy at $25

Surprising. Fruit forward with subtle earth tones and a lasting finish.
