Deep ruby color. Stood upright for a few days before decanting; only a small amount of sediment. Taste on opening revealed bright red fruit with good acidity. After an hour, acidity stepped back and some blue fruit and oak joined the red fruit from earlier. An excellent CA pinot noir (no mistaking this for Burgundy) that's in a great place now. Fully mature; it should hold here for several more years, but as others have noted, I don't see upside to further aging.

Can it get much better than this? We are not sure how it can! Wait more time if you want, but we are glad we drank this bottle now.
