Purchased upon release and stored in a refrigerated cellar at 44-47 degrees since. Rare for me to drink top end wines by myself - great wine like this is to share unless you have many zeros in your net worth. So given the Cellar Tracker reviews I thought why not see what I've got with the most likely outcome being not much. This is at the back end of the window, but it in my burgundy ballpark. Very light in color with pure reddish mouth filling pinot. No earthiness, no barnyard, no beef (literally and figuratively) Think Drouhin Laroze of the past if not today. Immensely tasty right down Broadway. My wine friends will have harsh words.

Piperade. Drinkable but cooked.

Pre-Paulée Friday Warm-up Dinner (Piperade - SF, CA): Stewed aromas. Palate is more fresh with good mature fruit. But this seems off?

Pre-Paulée Warm-up Dinner (Piperade - San Francisco CA): Stewed aromas, but good flavors with earth and black cherry. 78 point nose, 90 point palate. Would more air have helped? Or hurt?
