Thematic Thanksgiving (Los Gatos, California): Light red. Again, some brett on the nose, maybe more subdued than the 2009 Vieilles Vignes. Back to a much lighter weight than the 2009. Blackberry fruit, crisper acidity than the older wine, more soil. Very good and I found the brett less distracting.

This is why we cellar wine. It's now silky and bright with layers of fungal flavors and considerable spice. A perfect PnP, ready and at peak.

Go ahead and drink this. It's fruit is receding and now part of a beautiful mature mix of earth, mushroom and easy acidity.

LOVED this. Murky dull purple in color. On the palate, perfectly mature with earth, soft cherry and strawberry, allspice, and white pepper. Drink now!
