  Magnum. Intense, pronounced nose of stem spice and mature black cherry. The palate is delicious and mid-weight with loads of elegance and freshness. Very Burgundian in a whole cluster style. At peak and should hold.

  This is fully mature and at risk of decline I think. that said this bottle was very nice, with the telltale spice and earth and some lingering cherry fruit. just a hint of alcohol early. very nice

  Was very pleasantly surprised by this 15-year old Oregon pinot... fully mature yet drinking beautifully. Nose and palate (though the latter is more impressive than the former) are predominantly of red fruits, especially fraises de bois, dried strawberries and cranberries, with some blue fruits and floral/decaying floral notes and a bit of forest floor, but with an underlying sweetness. Mouthfeel is nicely balanced, tannins fully resolved and acidity only moderate; but the weight of the wine is lovely and not at all overdone. Could be a Laurent or other modern Burg producer from a very good 1er (not Chambolle) in a ripe year.

  Proof positive WV Pinot has aging potential. Fully resolved and full of lush strawberry punch. Very nice.

  from 375. PNP. this was really really good tonight. classic Cristom secondary nose and palate. Smooth and silky on palate with med long finish. I'll bet the 750's could go a bit longer, but why wait!
