Still going strong - needs about an hour in the decanter to deepen, build some mouthfeel and add secondary flavors. Not a blockbuster but strikes a good balance of flavor and lightness to be suave for a Central Coast pinot, even at 14 years old.

Clean cork with a nice cherry red color. A burst of red fruit on the nose which faded quickly. Very thin on the finish.

Needed an hour of decanting
Past it’s peak but was enjoyable once it opened up.

Seems to be holding together fine, but it’s a bit primary and one dimensional for my tastes.
