  Our last bottle, popped and poured. While this was still drinking well 5 years ago, it has lost its fruit and is in decline. A solid wine at its peak, and an emotional wine for us, this one is in decline and should be drunk up quickly. B-

  Decanted very briefly off its sediment. Pale ruby color. Bright cherry fruit dominates, with a prominent earthy undertone. Good acidity, with cherry and earth tones on the palate.

  Medium ruby with brickish edges - it looked older than 6+ years. The nose opened up a bit with some air, and had berry fruit, faded flowers and leather notes. It had a gentle attack with moderate size and fully resolved tannins. Some earth and faded berry character on the palate, with some acidity but a finish that slowly faded. A nice village wine, and no green notes.

  This being my last bottle, I threw it in as a "ringer" in a tasting of American 04-05 Pinot's - not with big boy Americans, but with 7 others that were in the $40-60 price range. Interestingly almost all picked it out as the ringer. It had the same bright fruit of the Americans, but a soil component that was pretty obvious, but not in an offensive way. I think that his I had more of this, it will go another 5-8 years, and may even get better, but it was very nice tonight. At the price I paid, it turned out to be a very good bargain. I think the 04 Burg vintage is very underrated in general.

  Nice expressive nose. Easy drinking, with plenty of ripe cherry. An easy wine to serve right now and would go well before or with food. Will appeal to a wide audience of pinot drinkers. Would consume over the next few years. B+
