Ok. A bit on the grape juice side. But decent. A little bitter —

Drank this 3L with Thanksgiving Dinner. Delicious with the spread that was out together. A little weak on the body and complexity, due to the age of the wine. Dull cherries, heavy tobacco, and mouth puckering. Was drank just in time.....

Starting to brown at the edge, just a hint of oxidation on the nose but still attractive vegetal nose, smooth on the palate.

Medium light colour, some browning at edge; attractive vegetal/pinot nose; soft on the palate, well balanced & pleasing finish.

This was obviously a bad bottle. Totally oxidized, color was off. I was very disappointed. Couldn't drink.

Berry and faint vanilla aroma, light body, berry flavors, not much structure. I prefer the 2002. C+

Anita: Great sharp yet sweet nose, a little cola, some boysenberry and blackcherry; med. bod, plenty of a’s in the mouth, lower t’s, but well-balanced.***This is an excellent table pinot, with sharp but pleasing acidic content.

Very berry taste - strawberry and herbs with a smokey, round tannin taste; very nice wine; also was good when finishing off 2 days later; enjoyed!
