Last bottle ... impressions consistent with previous quick note. Fruit is on the way out, but the acidity and minerality on the finish are still there. Enjoyable, but time to drink up.

Quick note: Bought this thinking it was the 2014. Definite family resemblance, but this is much later in life. Moderate bricking with significant clear edges. At the open, it felt a bit tired, but it really improved with some air time, and in the end was quite delightful. (Light texture, delicate red fruit flavors, with some hints caramel and butter.) To be revisited and evaluated in more detail, but not too far in the future.

Had a couple of these on purchasing in 17'. A very light but enjoyable Pinot Noir. Sadly found this lost bottle in cellar last night and it seems to have lost it's luster. Still drinkable but not much redeeming quality left. I would drink up. Or maybe it was just my bottle but don't see another tasting since 17' as well.

Well past prime, yet interesting morsels here and there from raspberry nose, through a finessed bit of mineral on a short finish.

Interesting but somewhat muted finish. Some Minerality. Hard to say if the wine is in a dumb stage or if we were dumb to buy at release price.
