I recently bought a case and the first bottle was mediocre. Older wines simply dont travel well. I also bought a case of Moon Select and the same thing happened. 3months in proper conditions and this turns out to be a real winner, light, flowery, silky, just very good.

I think Flowers is making a comeback....but not with this wine. It is very simple, weak not much going on. For the location (next door to Hirsch) and the money for their wines, they need a little more character. CMR has always been one of my favorite Pinots.

Still has decent life left in its soul. Color was ruby with slight bricking. Cherry nose, light bodied, red fruits on palate, very balanced finish. Paired with bacon wrapped mini Mac n Cheeses. Perfect.

Very lovely in color and aroma. Medium red in color with nice aromatics of red fruit and spice elements. Palate offers some ripe plum, black cherry andred raspberry flavors. Subtle and elegant and flawlessly put together. This wine is totally integrated and drinking perfectly. Fine tannins and a silky smooth delivery and a nice lasting finish.
