Still vibrant with tart black fruit and nice acid. This wine has aged well. Smooth, complex and balanced.

Fabulous nose that is darker and more black fruit than the normal tangy red fruit of the region, but still hints of SLH coming through. On the palate it is strawberry, blackberry and oak with nice acid. Silky smooth mid-palate. If it finished a little longer it would be spectacular.

Excellent pinot. Just starting to show hints of age with dried fruits on the nose. Palate is silky smooth with racy acidity. Good stuff.

Needs time to breathe. Smells and tastes young.

I say strawberry jammy. Staci says blackberry and oak. In any event, we like it.

Laurelie says: gave me a "vision" or, rather, a hallucination in which I felt I was being strangled by barbed wire.
