This is still a wonderful and beautiful wine. It retains a youthful energy while delivering great red and dark red fruit flavors. There is a special depth to this wine that I think of as distinctly DuMOL. There is a great future for this one for those lucky enough to have some on hand. We drank our bottle over several evenings and it retained its freshness and flavors throughout.

Pop and pour. Oh my goodness. In the glass, dark rose at the rim, shading to deep red/maroon at the core. On the nose, cherries, rose petals, and potpourri in the background. On the palate, saturated, rich dark cherries, with what seems like an impossible hybrid of rich, lush mouthfeel with a light, airy texture. A thread of spice (clove, nutmeg, cinnamon) runs throughout, leading to a smooth, complex finish that drives you right back for the next smell and sip. One of the best pinots I've had in quite some time. Bravo!

Delicious, but not quite as fresh and vibrant compared to last bottle.

Delicious ripe cherry, spice, and earthy notes on the nose and silky rich palate with a long finish.

Really like this wine. Deep red color for a Pinot with a ripe cherry almost butterscotch nose and taste
