Sunday, November 19, 2017 - From magnum. Wonder if we get $10 instead of $5 on the charity challenge because it was a magnum. With the cooking crew at the Kol Ami Thanksgiving Banquet for the family homeless shelter. Opening a Curmudgeon Cuvee just seemed appropriate in light of my personal reputation among the leadership and administration when they get in my way.

It was 10:30 am, which means it was noon in the Maritime provinces, so it was time to pop and pour. The color seemed a bit more advanced than I would have expected from a 5 year old magnum. Light in color with perhaps a very light browning tint, but it might have been the lighting. Palate is nice and balanced, with a hint of red fruit. Acidity seems a bit light compared to the Patricia Green and the Hospices Volnay we opened later in the morning, but not flabby. It was crisp but not tart, which is a good thing. Considering that it was a pinot, it was pretty good. Nice way to kick off the morning.
