  Every bit as good as last bottle nearly 4 years ago, maybe better; cool and foresty and savory like top-notch burgundy; featherweight with crisp acidity

  Equal parts cranberry and pomegranate and cinnamon and tea and gray pebbles and black peppercorn; seamless alcohol (12.7%) and acidity; a confidently made wine not afraid to show its sense of place; but a bit disjointed on day two

  Drank along with a Big Basin 08 Woodruff, double-blind to most of the group except me. The Wind Gap took time to come around; the first pour was not totally closed down but flatter boring compared to the fruitier and livelier Big Basin. Later, it emerged as a more complex and satisfying if less showy wine with a long, gorgeous finish right on the edge of savory. I found this rendition more complementary with food. More stems, less oak here compared to the Big Basin, quite a dramatic comparison between 2 wines made from the same source, with neither wine hitting my happy medium at the moment. This bottle is far superior to one from 2012 but still somewhat reticent and fussy. If I had another I would hold 2-4 years.
