Cork stained through and through, but was solid, not dried out, which made for relatively easy removal. Wine was cloudy, but smelled of fresh raspberries. While the wine was beginning to fade after about an hour, at was pretty much gone. Very good showing for a 20 year old pinot. 92-93.

4 Pinot Noirs (Walnut Creek, Ca.): Young, rich fruit on the nose, opened nicely, very sweet/sour fruit, lovely to drink, masculine taste, very accessible and mouth filling, lots of medium tannins, nice, lovely, sour fruit on the finish. My #1 of 4.

Exciting nose of hay, earth and sour red fruits. Austere, and short with a little brett but oh, what a mid-palate.
