Still plenty of life left here. I slow ox'd the bottle for an hour or so and it still took some time for the VA to blow off. I found it added some charm to the wine, but my friends didn't agree. I will remember to give my future bottles more air before pouring.
Underneath all that acid there's a wonderful dried raspberry, black tea, and undergrowth mixture that's intoxicating to drink. This is my second aged Mt Jefferson bottle and both have held up so well. I'm inspired to seek out more aged Oregon Pinot.

Light and thin in color, but not in aroma or on the palate. Earth, spice, sous-bois notes. Plenty of bright red fruit flavors, maybe cherryade. Pretty significant acidity. Nice wine.

Annual Wine Group Summer Event - BBQ Brisket at Siggy's (Siggy & Jenny's Place, Mpls, MN): Small taste. Brief note; Had this on release and now again tonight from Magnum. Not much has changed, red cherry, cola, spiced, somewhat harsh and bitter on the still tannic finish.

Really intense raspberry nose. Nice acidity and a lengthy length. It was lovely with some reblochon
