Another beautiful bottle of 1995 Swan Estate Pinot Noir, my notes are consistent from bottles tasted in 2021 and 2022, there is an overt richness and power to this wine, though it’s not overripe (13.7% ABV), just a GREAT Swan Estate, long, lingering finish, and fortunately I have more (purchased a case of this on futures for $180/200, dont remember exactly). Should pair beautifully with some grilled Copper River Alaskan wild salmon, and also a grilled piece of wild King salmon from the Fort Bragg (California) area!!!
