It's pretty. Oh, so pretty.
More Chambolle than Russian River.
You've got to f'in kidding me.

This bottle actually is more youthful than the past few I've had. Nice structure, and dark fruits. I just might set my last few bottles aside and see how much longer it goes.

This wine is absolutely singing! 18 years old but still displaying primary bright, sour cherry in both nose and palate. A touch of soy sauce and celery salt and that indescribable “it” quality that old wines have. I had my doubts about a new world Pinot that was nearly 2 decades old, but this exceeded my expectations. And the bottle only cost me $21 from WineBid!
