Has lost a little fruit in its old age. Still drinking nicely. Just over the hill but barely! I had the half bottle format so the 750 should be just right about now. — 4 years ago

Nothing subtle about this PN! Very rich and fruit forward in a very modern way. No way this wine could be from Burgundy! A real mouthful. Round, smooth, unctuous and heavy. Light in color, full in flavor. — 4 years ago

Very full and round. Quite a tasty mouthful! If anything, this verges on overripe. My wife's initial comment is "Delicious!" — 8 years ago

Holding up really well. Plenty of fruit melding with soft tannins. Glad to have more bottles to track this wine's continuing growth. — 9 years ago
