Charleston V - the wooden anniversary; 11/6/2019-11/10/2019 (Charleston, SC (various locations)): Another favorite of mine from the tasting. This seemed to split people. There is almost a super sweetness to it. Dried fruits, but the kind with that sugary covering so that they are closer to candy than fruit. Some found that over the top. For me it was quite enjoyable when combined with the real lightness of the Pinot and the nice acid. Aged Pinot that still has fruit and good acid is something I could get into.

Dinner at Bern's. Stunning. Somm didn't expect this to be so beautiful. Succulently sweet fruit, silky smooth. Must have been an almost perfect bottle.

Charleston Offlineorama V; 11/7/2019-11/10/2019 (The Holy City): Really youthful, oddly so. There are lots of primary flavors still dominating and the red fruits are amazingly fresh.

Brownish tint to the nose, but good fruit and acid across the palate. Must have been quite good when a little younger. 93-

Oxidized nose, but with lots of fruit. The attack is huge, super intense with immense black fruit. Touch too much acidity.
