Found this gem in the back of the cellar. Killer nose, ripe fruit that is holding up well for the vintage, and long finish. WesMar hit it out of the ballpark in 2004!

I enjoy my Pinot Noir with some age on it and this was excellent. It has softened and smoothed out. While the fruits are muted from where they were 4 years ago, they are still dominant. Red cherry and spice, complex with a medium long finish. Wonderful mouthfeel, great nose, and with a richness that it didn't have when younger. Wonderful wine that is drinking very well.

One of three 2004 Cali Pinots served at Thanksgiving. Served Dierberg, Donum Estate and WesMar Olivet Lane. Jill, Christine and I enjoyed the WesMar. Lisa the Donum. All were very good and consumed in full.

Time has been kind to this bottle. Beautiful red fruits on the nose and palate. I didn't find the raspberry that I had detected in the past, but loads of cherry and strawberry. Also, the oak has receded and this was in perfect balance. Sadly, my last bottle.
