  Great acidity and verve in this wine, but fruit is wearing a little thin, leaving a sharp edged herbal tinge that is not altogether wonderful. Good drink, but I can't love this. Got it on a closeout deal so can't really complain.

  This bottle didn't seem dried out like the previous bottles but still featured prominent wood. Not bad but not in my wheelhouse.

  Again, a little too much wood on this one for me.

  Fruit seems to be fading quite a bit. Not necessarily a bad thing, because it is maturing, but this seems to be drying out, leaving more wood tannins than I would like. Based on these two recent bottles, I'd say drink these up in the next year.

  Fairly ripe and rich new world Pinot, but seems to be past the youthful stage. There's some prominent oak that has not integrated and is not hidden by primary fruit which I was not particularly fond of, but it did integrate a bit with extended air.
