November 17, 2010 - this is like a Grand Cru Burgundy for half the price! Earthy ad rich without being too big or overripe! Dark, rich cherry tones and great balance. the 05 is still too young, and this is jsut starting to get interesting. Plenty of fruit left, but leave this a few more years and it'll take that fruit and make even more of an integrated, wonderful bottle-aged Pinot!
