jjhsom Likes this wine: 92 points
February 9, 2021 - I have a case and just tried my 2nd bottle. This time I poured most of it in a decanter for 30 mins and left some in the bottle. The portion left in the bottle was better and my memory is that the wine tasted even better May 2020. My conclusions:
-Don’t decant this wine. Like many pinots, decanting does not improve the wine. It might be better w/more bottle age, but not w/decanting.
-Maybe this wine is going through a dead period. I know that some CNDPs are great young and great again with age but go through a lull in between. This might be the case w/this wine.1 person found this helpful 1,476 views
