Community Tasting Notes 5

    November 26, 2009 - One of (if not the) best Pinots I've had this year. Effusive nose, full of flavor, long, lingering finish. Definitely a fruit-forward styled Pinot, but done with restraint and balance.

    June 5, 2009 - Very good, could have used a few more years of cellaring.

    February 9, 2009 - Good color. Full bodied with a good mouth feel. Bitter taste on the edge, and bitter on the finish. Will have the second half tomorrow and see if it improves. Not sure if this is a poor bottle, or a style of PN that I do not prefer. Two nights later. The bitterness is gone. Much of the fruit is gone and it no longer has the creamy mouth feel. Apparently I should have decanted longer to remove the bitterness and still catch the good stuff.

    I am removing my rating since I do not know how to deal with this bottle.
