Color was darker than expected. Wasn't the typical light colored 11 year old Pinot. Decanted 30 mins and still had a little fruit and no tannins. Still drank well. Wouldn't hold onto it much longer.

Medium to light red in color. A bit harsh in the mouth. Rose petals, tar and coffee. Not really the flavors I look for in pinot. Pleasant enough, but not a wine I would buy again.

Almost 17 and still in good shape. Slightly more modest than last bottle 12/2013, but still nice structure and lift, light cherry fruit, easy finish.

Holding up well despite its age, very pleasant plummy profile, light fruit and modest minerality, no tannins to speak of.

Dark, slightly cloudy red. Round and full in the mouth. Tomato leaf and earth, with some dusty cherry. Nice finish. Nice wine.
