Such a smashing rendition of a SB. I can’t think of anything else quite like this on the market today.
The acidity is relaxing, suggesting that you should consider consuming these now.

Enjoyed a bottle of 18 last night. In the zone as we speak. I tend to agree with you. Not getting any better.

Further improved on day 2.
Lots of oak treatment on the nose and palate. Tannins are still quite robust, along with the acidity. Best Lamborn in a while. Drink or hold this vintage.

This reads like a book written for me (which it wasn’t). Love this decadent, OTT pinot. Layered, sweet and textured with oodles of cola. — 7 days ago

Already past it’s prime. We’ve had too many aged Aubert’s present like this. Extremely disappointing. — 12 days ago

I have some I kept way too long (2007). The Kistlers at that age are undrinkable. These are just disappointing but it’s also my fault.

In England they spit out their “binkies”. Weird, right?

Nah. In the UK, a pacifier is called a “dummy.” I think Binkie is another US term. Not used in UK.
