Used a Coravin over a few different nights and let the glasses sit out for varying times (1-3 hours) to give some air. However time in the glass didn't seem to make a difference. Notes didn't change much over the different nights. This was a fantastic Pinot. Aromas of forest floor, menthol, crushed damp flowers, and a hint of bubblegum (which I loved). Palate was dark cherries, raspberries, hint of mint, and roses. The tannins were really refined here. This went down so smoothly. I wish there was a little more acidity, but that's my only knock. Overall, damn this was an enjoyable bottle.

Overt “stinky” pinot aroma. Notes of red cherry cranberry and red berries with some dried underbrush and leaves. Very full flavor, smooth and sweet, with nice texture and mouth feel. Notes of sweet red berries and earth, clementine, licorice and rhubarb. Black tea finish with very fine tannins and good acidity. Extremely complex aroma and flavor and very well integrated. Fantastic.
Drink now for primary fruit, or hold for more secondary development.

Open several hours. Good but still a little acidic.
