  April 20, 2024 - very good and drinking well.
  I was expecting this to feel more evolved and tertiary but there is still good depth of fruit and balnce of oak to the wine.
  far from over the hill

  July 24, 2021 - A dry good older Pinot. Forest floor with a hint of raspberries and nutmeg. A complex wine that is very enjoyable if you like older, more evolved Pinot.

  February 4, 2018 - The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are fast. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like mineral, acetic acid, alcohol/hot and stoniness. Bitter and tannic. cork had crystalized sediment. has an oak taste.
  The wine became very mellow after about an hour of breathing. Actually quite good and stable taste

  October 2, 2017 - Last of 3, which I had actually "drank" a while back and marked "inventory clean-up" due to misplacing it, and well, here it is after all. Brickish garnet color with transparency. Aromas of black cherry, plum, prune, cola, earthy funk, tobacco, lemon, and orange peel. Fruit's faded a bit from the last one back in 2011, but it's still drinking alright for me, and the wife gave it a "I like this wine," which is about as good as I get from that one. Light to medium body, medium(+) acid, medium finish, and flavors of black cherry, plum, cola, and tangerine. Pretty good.

  November 16, 2016 - At its best. Full matured starting a slow walk down.
  Aromatically it is on the mineral side, anthracite, chalk and gunpowder. No cherries at all but prunes.
  On the palate better thing was its aftertaste. Acidity is just alright. Don't look for any depth. Length either. Some tartar crystals usually a cause of headache.
  Good refreshing, honest Pinot noir matching a homemade beans stew.
  By the way, under 90? Can't agree with you pals...
  
  En su mejor momento. Completamente maduro comenzando un lento camino cuesta abajo.
  Aromáticamente está en el lado de la antracita, de la pólvora de la tiza. No hay cerezas en absoluto excepto ciruelas pasas.
  En el paladar, lo mejor era el postgusto. La acidez está simplemente bien. No busquemos ninguna profundidad. Longitud para nada. Algunos cristales tartáricos frecuentemente causa de dolores de cabeza.
  Un refrescante, honesto Pinot noir para acompañar un guiso de alubias casero.
  A propósito, menos de 90 puntos? No puedo estar de acuerdo...
