Today, this wine tastes a little "pruney" to me and lacks acidity and focus. I would have guessed southern Rhone .Lacks Pinot Noir character. Perhaps I've just had too many good wines.

See prior note from 11/22......let this bottle air for 3 hours and it had a more velvety body plus a spicier flavor than the last bottle. Very good. In its drinking window for sure.

Holding on it's plane of maturity, this wine will be good for several more years. Good fruit and acidity, with just the right amount of tannic bite left to provide focus. Just a little "green". Long finish. Addendum: On day three, this rates a 93!

So beautiful and complete with about a 2 hour decant. Lovely fruit and gentle earthy notes. Such an expression of the place the grapes were grown. Perfect with chicken.
After a few days it’s still very persistent with very generous giving character. Really nice nice!

Final two bottles at xmas - wonderful wine that took 5 years to come around and has been beautiful drinking since until finally finished.
