  March 1, 2021 - In a great spot, this wine is tasting extremely good right now !!
  The cork was nearly perfect after a decade in the bottle. This is a balanced Pinot Noir that I consumed over two days. Deep ruby color with no oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas of pomegranate and carmel, flavors of sweet cranberry, cherry, rhubarb, and forest floor with a pleasant medium to long finish. Popped and poured, this wine really benefited from gentle oxygen since it was much more soft & integrated on day two. Great fruit with firm acidity made into a very balanced Pinot Noir from the Klopp Ranch in the Russian River Valley appellation of Sonoma County. This Pinot Noir is an age worthy wine and has many more years of life left. I still have one more bottle of this vintage remaining; I may open it in the next few months or so to verify my rating.
