Found locally on closeout price. My local store nearly got a case of this for free at just a few bucks per bottle. (A big box store down the road had their last 2010 bottle on the rack for $59.) Distributor couldn't move it and a few cases were still lurking around. Most of those bottles held up beautifully. One bottle a week ago was just awful. Still singing if stored ideally. 91/100.

Strawberry on the nose and in the mouth; moving from underripe to ripe and back as it moves into the nice pop of acidity on the finish. Earth and toffee notes in the background along the way. YUM. Another great example of the initially-awful, long-term wonderful summer-without-a-summer 2011.

Perfumed sexy nose of stem, spice and black cherry. Light to medium bodied and super silky with a big pepper and spice kick. Only moderately concentrated but super suave.

The earthy cherry flavors are working for me. Nice finish. Compared with same vintage Soter Mineral Springs Ranch; the Soter was deeper, better nose. Both very good.

Quiet nose. Burgundian style. Light, but solid example of Oregon Pinot. Definitely a bit overpriced for what it delivers.
