Bacigalupi Vineyard Pinot Noir

Dry cork, but otherwise a great wine. Picked it up for $5 at our favorite wine store as the daily special (because of the cork issue).

Cork disintegrated for me . Slight alcohol taste. But generally good wine which improved with a little exposure to air.

Cork disintegrated and had some heavy funk at first but this wine developed so very nicely. Classic RR profile, bright cherries, sous bois, supple tannins and brisk, lifted acidity and long finish. Surprising after an inauspicious start.

Black cherry cola with dirty mushrooms, soft tannins and fresh Rainier cherries. Opened up nicely with decanting, worth the time. Acidity still present, drink over the next 3 yrs.
