  PNP. Cork perfect. Color garnet brick with clearing edges. Nose to me is dominated by rhubarb but there is still some red fruit clinging. Swishing shows tannic structure that is resolving but not quite. Agree that this may never completely resolve its structure. Sipping shows great balance between the secondary flavors and the structure. This is very versatile and went well w pork burgers topped w Stilton and grilled peaches. Will drink remaining bottles in next 5 yrs

  Gorgeous, this will be worth following at least a few more years. Perfumed and elegant nose, dried berries, raspberry and blueberry, plums, blood and peonies, a little citrus and pepper too... medium to full, but very lively and fresh, fruit is fading into the background, but this has a beautiful tangy berry and citrus character that plays so nicely with many delicate meaty, floral and spicy notes. Tannins are a little chunky and grippy still, and they will probably never completely soften, but for now there's plenty of fruit and spicy to keep them from being tough. In its plateau, to be sure, but in a cool cellar this should do well for many more years. This has really Pinot-ed, as in it has aged in such a way that it could possibly be mistaken for Pinot...

  Past prime. Decent nose of fresh fruit but w an older twist. Palate lacked expressiveness. Fruit was subdued and old.

  A ruby core leading to a salmon meniscus. Scents of earth, with a spectrum of red and dark berries on the nose. The palate offers up notes of cherries, boysenberries, leather, and flavors that remind me of an old/dusty work-shop with oil-stained floors and benches. Light-medium body, high acidity, med tannin, med+ fruit, and a long, rustic finish that seems to offer up more notes of old leather, mushrooms, and cast iron as the finish persists. This is a lovely example of just how elegant BOJO's can be...
