  This one is dead, Jim. Thin, faded.

  More like the bottles I had in 2018. Full of life. Fragrant Pinot nose and luscious fruit filled palate.Oak adds to the complexity, but lingers in the background. Nice acidity, and pleasant finish.

  Lovely. I agree with the comment that further aging isn’t needed, but it’s drinking beautifully now. All the character of Burgundy with new world fruit. Supple and delicious.

  Oak becoming more noticeable with bottle age. Fruit fading a bit, but still a great bottle of wine. Will last a few more years, but further aging will not pay off. Drink up!

  Pinot Noir Mini-Tasting; 1/19/2019-1/26/2019: 20 minute slo-ox, and the wine did not improve during the one hour meal. No sediment to speak of. There were some light earthy aromas. The medium bodied palate presented some light red fruit, more acidity than needed to balance, and a touch of drying tannins on the finish.
  Our overall impression is that this wine has passed its peak and is beginning to fade -- similar to the GBBWINO TN follow-on of 2/10/18. Maybe just a "bad" bottle...
