  Dinner at Mike and Cathy's place (Wellington, New Zealand): Under cork. Colour deep ruby, with hints of brown. A funky, slightly feral nose, secondary in character showing sous bois, mushrooms and a strong lactic component. Clearly old Pinot Noir with the secondary development over a core of developed red berry aromas. On palate, mushroom and funky on entry showing that secondary character, again with a core of preserved or dried red fruits. A nice, silky texture, with good fruit weight, but a little vegetal or under-ripe, pulling up a bit short. An interesting wine, still drinkable, but on the downward slide.
