Bottle is in great shape. Still wonderful fruit and beautiful secondary/tertiary aromas/flavors.
Appearance is slightly cloudy and still ruby. Nose is medium intensity with notes of strawberries, dried fruit, and wet forest floor.
This wine is medium (-) acidity, medium - tannins, medium alcohol, medium - body. Taste is as the nose strawberries/ dried strawberries, leather and tobacco. Truly wonderful wine. Hope to find more.

Delightful. First half of bottle super transparent and lovely integrated secondary flavors. Was a well stored bottle bought at auction.

Probably waited too long to open this one. A shame, really, I'm sure in it's prime it was quite good.

decent OR pinot...nothing damning but nothing giving it personality either. decent acidity, avg fruit, no compelling secondary flavors

Elegant and well integrated but lacking the complexity I was hoping for.

Quite nice. Well integrated tannins and subdued cherry mouth. Wish I had more.
