  Bricked and cloudy and also fresh and tart. Delicate fruit, with an earthy, meaty tone. On the downhill slope, I'm sure, but still alive and kicking. Reminds me a bit of an Oregon Pinot from the same year that I had a few months ago.
  Update on night two: Did I say, "on the downhill slope"? Well, now I don't know. With air--and a day of it--the bouquet became both more intense and more elegant, adding a floral quality to the sweet fruit. The palate throughout was brisk, light, and easy--a bit playful actually, for an old guy like this. Really quite nice.
