Seriously disappointed. I bought this bottle from a wine shop. First bottle from the winery. First was outstanding this one impaired $199 down the drain!

If it had been properly stored it would have had a higher rating.

I picked this bottle up @ Costco for $19. It's smooth but not sensational. I wonder if it was Mis marked?

This is what wine should taste like - even better than the last bottle (6 months ago).

It needed to open up. I didn't like it at first but now I think it's ok. I will buy it again.

I liked the last bottle better. Yesterday I had a 2010 Kistler Pinot Noir. Everything else will pale in comparison.

It smells like stoniness, blackberry, tobacco, black pepper, black currant (cassis) and cherry. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

Very tight even with 1 hr decant. Saving next bottle for a few more years.

One of the best wines I've ever had.
The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like black currant (cassis). The body is medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

I like this bottle better than the first one I opened. Maybe I've lowered my expectations. It's ok, better than average but not exceptional. Over-priced for sure.
