Last bottle. Had a good run with this wine, terrific fruit and acidity with only the slightly over-present oak keeping it from perfect balance. Enjoyable nonetheless.

Black cherry, cola, oak (much settled compared to previous bottles), good acidity. All nicely balanced. Drinking perfectly now.

Cherry, smoky oak. Still drinking well, would rate higher if the toasty element would integrate better.

Lovely. Cherry with a bit of cranberry, cola, nicely oaked and perfect acidity. Even better after 24hrs.

Drank this with gusto. Very consistent with previous bottles, still benefits from a decant or consuming the 2nd day.

Light cherries and toast. Easy drinking, but no great complexity.

Poured through Vinturi, which is recommended - the wine still needs some air. Really quite excellent. Previous notes apply.

Classic black cherry, oak and a well-timed lift from the acidity. It all plays so nicely together.

Poured through Vinturi. First night there was something akin to a smoke taint that blew off with some air, and was completely gone on the second night. Dark cherry and pomegranate, oak, good acidity with fine tannins. Very good indeed, and holding up well.

Enjoyed with friends on New Year's Eve. Same notes as before. Terrific bottle.

Cherry, oaky goodness. Just what you'd expect from a Gap's Crown Pinot. Nice toasty oak that's not overly prominent. The flourish comes late and extends the finish. Easily has a few years of cellar time left.
