Thanksgiving: PnP. The wine was a bit cloudy, but there was no sediment present. Lightest - in color and body - of the 4 vineyard designated pinots consumed today. Yielded some red fruit, but with more acidity than needed for balance. Not the best of vintages, and we probably waited too long to pop the cork.

Wife thought it was corked, but fortunately it was just a dose of chemical that disappeared quickly and was forgotten. Nervy red/strawberry with a bit of rhubard that added a bit of savoriness, which for me is typical of the SCM near Corralitos. Standard 2011 acidity = a fun and plucky wine. Good stuff. No clue about the window, but as with most 2011's, it might be best to cut bait and enjoy them now.

Light colored moderate finish. Strawberry notes drinking well on PnP
