  Very fruity at the beginning. Better and better balance by the hour. Really nice after 3 hrs. Nose: Very good 8/10. Palate: 9/10. Medium-full bodied. Lively. Finish: 8/10. Price: 9/10 ($84 2023). Enjoyment: 10/10. Would buy again: Probably. Drinking nicely.

  After an hour in the glass this has yet to reveal itself. A very large wine and far denser than the 2014 Southing I had recently. This is a full bodied pinot that should continue to drink well for 5 plus years. Prominent cherry fruit flavors reminds the taster that this is no doubt new world. I had the 2013 Ten last week and found that to be slightly better overall, especially the balance. This is in or near its prime.

  Still drinking very well. Enjoyed with the turkey ham and a variety of Thanksgiving vegetables. Seemingly less fruit than in earlier years
  The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are medium. There was no sediment in the bottle.

  Decanted >2 hours. Last tasted in 2020 and thought the wine was in a good drinking spot. 3 years later and this is still fresh and delicious. A well made wine that probably can cellar longer but I feel this is in a good spot and will not get better with more time. It may stay the same but I like freshness in my PN.

  Enjoyed from magnum tonight on the LV Strip with great friends before the VGK game. Nice Pinot with delicious food at Eataly.
