August 29, 2023 - In a great spot, this wine is tasting extremely good right now !!
The cork was nearly perfect after a dozen years in the bottle. This is a balanced Pinot Noir blend that I consumed over two days. Deep ruby color with no oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas of pomegranate and caramel, flavors of sweet cranberry, cherry, rhubarb, and forest floor with a pleasant medium finish. This wine 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 Russian River Valley appellation of Sonoma County. This Pinot Noir is an age worthy wine and has more years of life left, unfortunately, I have no more bottles of this vintage remaining..1 person found this helpful Comment -

January 16, 2023 - Bright and acidic with red cherry, strawberry, and cranberry fruit. Mid-palate notes of cola, red licorice, and cinnamon spice. Good finish and nice wine after 13 years but time to drink up.

October 30, 2022 - Not a wine built to age, nor one that is particularly discernible as pinot noir to me at this point. It’s got some maple notes with cola, black cherry liquor, but not holding together too well. Drink yesterday.
