This is drinking extremely well right now If you have one, pop that bottle. Decanted for a couple hours. Had with maple salmon on Cedar plank. Excellent pairing Verging on a triple yum. Little toasted oak on the nose. Strawberry jam on the palate. Finish medium.

This has more pinosity in my mind than the Nuits Saints George I drank the day before. Ruby ruby ruby as the Kaiser Chiefs sing. Raspberries, strawberries, & earthy sous bois. Light bodied, spicy delicate fruit, mellow tannins and persistent acidity. Not many years ahead of it but great drinking now. As the Beach Boys say fun fun fun... A little heat on the backend mars the overall greatness.

Overall, nice, though a tad lighter than I expected. Had a bit of a creamy texture with more vanilla notes than I'm used to in Willamette Valley Pinot Noir I've had. 88-89.
