Needs an hour to open up, but at that point, it shows a great blend of varietally correct pinot fruit, depth and structure. 12% alcohol is another huge plus. Wish I had more.

agree with previous tasters in retrospect, acidity is present, but fruit has faded a bit; my previous bottle 4 yrs ago was more enjoyable if you have any left, drink with food .... mild cherry/leather after a bit of air

The fruit seems to have faded a fair amount

I agree with Parker in every respect on this wine. I think it was approaching a peak but still can improve.

Earthy nose with a variety of flavors in the midpalate. Still a little rough on the finish. i don't think it will get any better.
