    December 25, 2014 - Christmas 2014 - despite being told that this is beyond its drinking window, the wine remains vibrant and delicious. The color does show significant bricking, consistent with some oxidation...but still bright fruit and tons of acidity on the palate. Will go well with Christmas dinner. This is my last bottle, but just wanted to put a note here to reassure anyone who thinks this is past its prime.

    April 1, 2009 - Medium ruby color, slightly cloudy. Nose of raspberry, spice, violets and oak with some intriguing stony/mushroomy notes. Full bodied on the palate with good acidity, mouthcoating.

    November 15, 2008 - Chicago Pinot Days-2008 (Navy Pier, Chicago IL): nose: nice pungent nose of bright cherries with sweet spices, anise, and soft red licorice tones

    taste: bigger body giving a medium/full pinot feel with bright cherries, spice, and red licorice tones

    overall: Really good medium/full bodied pinot. Nice structure with medium acidity though there is a bit of heat with a nice red cherry attack and anise based finish
