  April 1, 2017 - Belated note. Very enjoyable bottle. Cola, cherries, and undergrowth. Can detect some bottle age on the wine now. Then fruit is less, the wine is more mellow. Still seems like there's life left. Will be interesting to see where this goes in a couple more years.

  June 10, 2014 - Translucent garnet - noted some browning on the second day. I had a hard time initially seeing much development with this wine and would love to taste this alongside the 2011 or 2012 vintage to get a good comparison. One thing's clear to me though - there's still a lot of vigour and youthfulness here and i don't see this fading anytime soon. The first aroma is undergrowth rather than fruit - so maybe some secondary aromas are starting to come more into play. And there's still that green pepper/alcoholic kick on the finish that for me is a signature of BM. Will have to check back in a year or so and maybe open a recent bottling beside it.

  January 10, 2013 - The wine has become more translucent with time and I think this is starting to gain some secondary characteristics. Quite the pretty aromas immediately upon opening: undergrowth and cherries. There is also a bit of sweetness coming from the alcohol in the wine, but it's not really unpleasant. Still vibrant and I believe this has a lot of life left yet. Blue Mountain Pinot doesn't disappoint.
