  A hint of brown on the rim to the ruby colored body. Cherry and strawberry nose and the same fruit is delicious on the palate. Fruit was very prominent in first few hours after opening. Next day the fruit is still there but diminished somewhat and therefore a little warmer on the finish as the tannin and alcohol are more apparent. A very nice effort from an excellent PN year but ready for consumption. This was my last bottle from this vintage.

  Wine continues to improve even from my last bottle 4 months ago. The cherry fruit dominates and the acidity is very well integrated and now there is a tingly finish that lasts 20+ seconds on the mid palate. Drinking well right now and just now entering a steady mature stage..

  I last tasted this wine in 2018 and commented it needed time in bottle to smooth out. The wine is now more accessible as it is more fruit forward and the tannin is smooth and even a little sweet. The red fruit is now more like traditional red cherry. Just the lightest hint of orange or light pink on the rim. Overall I get the feeling that it will continue to improve and gain complexity but enjoyable now with decant and aeration.

  Solid bottle of wine. Nicely balanced with some pepper on finish. It makes me think I should try some of his higher-end wines. Any recommendations?
