Corks: Chateauneuf du Pape (Rossford, OH): This is my last bottle; I'm going to miss this wine! Aging well - all of its youthful bubblegum and big fruit have faded away and left a very elegant Pinot. On the negative side, the alcohol is showing, as is the oak. Neither holds this back too much, though, and it's still delicious.

Might be past its prime. Seems like a lot of acid with little balance. Went nicely with food.

This one was either slightly corked, or just not showing as great as before. Still fruit, but showing a little bit of an odd earthiness. $27

Bubble gum, pencil lead. Big nose. Rich. Big, extracted.

Pinoty! Rich, dark fruit, soft plums, very smooth. Very light tannin and acid. Not super-complex, just delicious. Creamy! $30
