Broad array of black berries with licorice, clove spice, and faint earth. Good depth and balance. Much better than my previous bottle opened 7 years ago. Still nicely fresh enough.

Medium red color, nice dark berry aromas after about 30 minutes of airtime. There is a nice amount of earthy dark cherry fruit but it seems to have faded a bit over the last year. The medium length finish was fruit filled and very pleasant. Served with an excellent roasted pasture raised chicken. Our last bottle.

Wonderful nose of soft fruit and earth. Didn't feel like decanting, but probably should have. Opened up beautifully in the glass. Again, light fruit on the palette, but still good structure and the right amount of earthiness for me. Lovely aged pinot.

Cherry cola on the nose which follows through the wine. Nice, subtle acidity tha Balances out. Very soft and refined

Was worried that I waited too long but was very happy. Just minimal acidity with a hint of strawberry.
