  Still holding on and not flagging at all. Quick 30 minute decant and consumption over 2 more hours. Cranberries, brightness at first. After 2.5 hours, quite a bit of black tea. Light tannin, nice acidity level. I’d guess another couple years, minimum, of good drinking but don’t foresee much further evolution.

  Figured it was time to check in on this. Not rich, not herbal, but a nice blend of the two aromatically. Tar, ripe black cherries, red plum, herbal twang and just a kiss of smoked game. Lively and acidic on the palate, even at 7yrs of age. Gained darker and more dense fruits as it opened, with added iron, tart red fruits and an herbal spice driven finish. Hardly any signs of age here, so no worries on holding. Still picking up some heat, so I’d imagine this has another 2-3yrs before it’s integrated at its peak. A nice bottle to introduce people to non fruit bomb pinots away from Cali but not full on Burgundian in style like some OR Pinots.
