To my surprise, in light of its age and the most recent CT comments, the wine was very nice from bouquet to finish: beginning with aromatics of cherry, plum and cedar, and ending with a savory herbaceousness that had been there from the first sip. In between, smooth round fruit and soft tannins with depth in the mouth and a complexity of flavors.

Medium red color. Nose of red fruit and spice. Medium intensity. Tastes of red raspberry, strawberry and soice. A solid wine. Narrower in scope than the 1999.

2000 Willamette Valley Pinor Noir -- a 15 year Restrospective; 4/18/2015-4/20/2015 (Littel Bird): Tons of nail polish on the nose, then hot, high heat. I wasn't a fan.

Very little sign of aging. Unbalanced with alcohol being the predominant characteristic.
