  Very nice for 13 year old New World pinot noir!

  Found this at the back of my cellar. Truth be told, it was almost past it’s prime but still good.
  
  Took a while to mellow in the decanter but ended up having great flavors of deep cherry and cedar notes.
  
  Glad we drank it when we did.

  I honestly thought this wine would be past its prime. Granted, it wasn't as big as most of the 2006's were, but it had great flavors throughout. Nice medium cherry, touch of cedar, a bit of baker's spice, and a soft crushed rose pedal rounding it out. Great wine, I believe it's at its peak now however so drink up!

  This wine has changed significantly with time. A distinct nose of coffee and library books. The wine had developed a subtlety that is enjoyable and characteristic of aged pinot. Diverse and evolving dark fruit flavors..

  The fruit was sweeter than I remember it being. It is more modern and definitely fruit foward, but I liked it. I don't see this improving much with age.
