May 27, 2016 - I had this wine several years ago and really liked it and decided to put a bottle away to see how it would age. As it turns out, not so well. It has indeed turned syrah like as another reviewer mentioned. Much of the fruit seems to have been lost. I know what this wine was in its appropriate drinking window and it is indeed past its prime now.

April 24, 2016 - Not a pinot drinker but this is one I can stomach. A little more syrah like and mellowed after being open for a day.

November 26, 2015 - Full nose of red cherries leads to a flavor of cherries galore. This was just a pleasure to drink. Intense. Not for light wine drinkers.

May 8, 2014 - Cherry, spice and nice oak. First drank this wine in 2011 and still delicious in 2014. Very good medium bodied Pinot.
