I agree with the note below - definitely all cherry and spice, and little dried out on the finish. Food smooths the end out, and it's a great match with roasted poultry. This may be the start of the (slow) decline for this wine.

Still cranberry, but sharper acidity and the wine is now leading and finishing with asian spice-box flavors. Screams for food, a little unbalanced without it. As the fruit fades a bit this wine is getting simpler, but is still delicious with slow cooked pork shoulder asian style with bok choy. Yum.

(Novy Family Wines Pinot Meunier Van der Kamp Vineyard) Light cherry red color; black cherry and plum nose; tart plum palate with depth; short-medium finish (ideal Thanksgiving turkey wine)

The cranberry that was present in previous bottles has disappeared. Cherry and spice now are predominant flavor. A little awkward on the back end.

Age has decreased the cranberry and increased the spice & cedar; still with a moderate finish.
