I suppose that the last bottle would be the nicest, eh? This is another incidental bottle that prompts me to believe that Bien Nacido, more than other vineyards down south, has what it takes to produce long lived pinots.

Still quite primary and not evolved, but nice nose, good mouth, and very good length. Shows promise for one more bottle remaining, if only it develops a bit.
Try the last bottle in, oh, 2017, at age 10.

Nose: In comparison to the ABC, it had a deeper nose with darker fruit.
Taste: Still rather tight and slightly lighter bodied on the palate but with time it revealed more elements of cherries and licorice. Overall not the best one of the evening.
