Disappointing, after re-reading reviews from Meadows and Gilman. A two-dimensional wine, lacking depth and finish. My bottle was bought on release and cellared perfectly. The wine is sound and maybe still immature but it’s never going to blossom into a cellar treasure, or an outstanding wine. Tastes like a village level wine at best. Sorry that I still have 5 more bottles.

In perfect shape in every way. Explosive fragrance of Pinot from the bottle as soon as the cork was pulled. Black cherries and cranberries, medium body with a subdued tannic finish and lingering fruit. The rich intensity of the wine didn’t fade over the 2 hours it was open. Worth the 30 year wait.

A really elegant wine. Doesn’t try to overwhelm. Crisp, medium-bodied, long flavorful finish. A classic burgundy before 3 overripe vintages.
