Held together very well. The fruit has all transitioned into dried strawberry/pie cherry with a hint of mace, Light bodied, acid holding well, no tannins to speak of and an elegant surprisingly long finish. Drink now,

The Return: The Monthly Big Group Comes Back (Ciao Bella, Mpls): Medium plus red fruit. PNP, drank a glass single blind over an hour. This was showing quite well, another year of age and it's even better. Not all surprisingly, the 2011's are really showing well at this point. Oregon earth, red cherry, a potpourri of spice and florals, blood orange and citrus on the finish, good acidity, very crisp and tasty.

Single Blind Burgundy vs Oregon (Ciao Bella): Very tiny pour, I just wrote "Yeah baby, 2011 Oregon". Take that as you wish.

no rating. this bottle seemed to be in a weird spot, more in a "closed down" way rather than being flawed.
bright red cherry, a little cinnamon, and not really much else. didn't change with time, temperature, or air.
will let my remaining bottles stay in the cellar for a while.
