Medium bodied, garnet Pinot with a rich forward aroma of cherry, earth, and spice. Slightly chewy on the palete with flavors of sweet tart cherries. Very Burgundian. Excellent. Drink now. 91 pts. 12/00 Medium maroon color. Nice nose and still holding up reasonably well. Definitely mature and unlikely to improve with age, it shows nice ripe cherry pinot fruit without too much else going on. 91pts. 2/05 YY Pinot Vertical - My #8, Group #10 - Full red crimson. Tight spicy red fruit aroma with hints of pear tart. Brigth (volitile?) acidity with clean red fruit. Longish spicy finish. 88-89 pts. 11/05

quite developed with distinct gamey characters, smooth, still with deep rich darker fruits.

Yarra Yering Blind Vertical Tasting (Hughes House - Chicago IL): Red fruit aromas with cinnamon, nutmeg, clove and dried thyme. Red an dblack cherry flavors, somewhat short and simple, but well balanced.
