Blind December Lunch (Lupo): Tasted blind. Ripe and sweeter pinot fruit but with some development and maturing notes. Clove spice, sweet berry fruit and a hint of smoky oak. A mature Cali pinot? Definitely has some age. Well balanced with resolved tannins and decent acidity. This is very well done but still shows the Cali Pinot profile which is not my favorite style of PN. At peak.

Drank like a beautifully, aging Volnay with mushroom notes and some lingering fruit of berries. Fully mature. Drink up.

Still enjoyable. Clearly on the tail of the curve. Good color, moderate fruit, light to medium body. Profile is typical of the appellation.
