By far the oldest pinot I've ever had. Cork seeped all the way through. Spice, currant, raisin and prune. Very nice acidity. Only a hint of fruit left on the pallate, but still drinking shockingly well. A pleasure to taste--different, unique, and very special.

Was it really pinot noir? Dark colored, high tannin, showing some medicinal qualities. A fun fact- this wine was made by Merry Edwards

Impressive. My 2nd bottle of this and the first was very tired. This one is vibrant. Great acidic tension and an explosive bouquet of tulip petals and champignons.
