  Opened and poured with burrito night. Pours a ruby to pink/slight oranging on the rim. Cork showed some weakening and disintegrative beginnings...Medium bodied, expressive pinot nose on the slightly musky side. Nice and integrated, with good fruit still - showing plum, dark strawberry, hoisin, fruit leather. Alcohol well integrated - not too hot.

  PnP, then drank 3 days later kept in cellar. Still some fruit left on opening. Like the nose initially but quite significant heat on the palate with some bitterness. Typical over-ripened, high alcohol RR Pinot. Once enjoyed it a while ago but not any more. When tried it 3 days after opening, fruits are gone. Still quite low on acidity. It is just way too heavy and ripe with not enough acidity to be harmonized. Won't buy KB any more unless they have significant change in wine making style even at $60.

  Never been a fan of the '06 single vineyards. Big, hot and for me out of balance. (84)
