March 8, 2013 - A private dinner (Restaurant De Hoefslag *, Bosch en Duin, Netherlands): Rich and smoky Pinot Noir, slightly stalky nose; rounded, ripe and silky, black fruit flavours, hint of citrus, packs quite a tannic punch; very good length.

I like the style, but lacks something to make it compelling. Still, it's elegant. Tastes like a solid $25-30 burgundy to me, not that those offer great value. Still a good QPR on closeout. 88-89?

July 18, 2010 - Wow this is outstanding for $10 on close-out. Old world mouthfeel meets new world flavor profile. Expressive nose of black cherry and a bit of clove. Almost weightless through the midpalate with raspberry flavors and nice acidity. Flavors kick in on the lengthy finish, dark cherries, baking spices and a hint of cola. Would still be a good value at 3x this price.
