At first opening there seemed to be no life. 2 hours later the nose was buzzing with mature and ripe red fruit and a touch of a tomato paste quality that was slightly intoxicating. Unfortunately the palate was lost though. #oregonwine #pinotnoir #domainedrouhin

Surprising tannins still. Firm but fine.

Perfection. Cannot believe the structure and intensity from this wine at this age. Truly an experience.

Pinot Noir 1997, 13%. Unfortunately this bottle was probably too old and tasted spoilt.

A lot of fun. Very developed and past peak. Surprising acidity. Secondary flavors of cherry fruit leather, black pepper, wood, and some stewed fruit too.
