Absolutely drinking beautifully. With age had more of a Burgundian character. More delicate than many bigger California Pinots. At its peak so will consume remaining bottles in the next year.

Still drinking well. Opened for an hour before tasting. Red fruit, dusty, with hints of cola. Tannins fully integrated with cherry cola on the finish. Was not sure what to expect and pleasantly surprised. If you have bottles left, I’d suggest you start to drink up. I don’t believe time will be an asset at this point but it’s a great bottle for now.

Lush, full-bodied, just a hint of prune compared to the 2009. From Joseph Phelps' cellar auction. Drink up.

Youthful in appearance. Begins with slightly sweet ripe black cherry, vanilla mid palate, a little bit of baking spices, and very nice by itself.
