  Purchased from Chambers St. Wines but there is a winebid.com label on the back, so origins are unknown. Nevertheless a bottle in good condition. This reviewer does not have extensive experience with 30+ year old Cali pinots, but this one offered a very pleasant mouthfeel (silky, fully integrated tannins), a muted nose of freshly tanned leather, strawberries and antique books, and a palate of strawberries, cranberries, and a hint of pine resin. Drink up for sure (preferably with food) as it's no doubt in decline, but it seems to be a gentle decline rather than a steep drop-off.
