1994 found it dusty in the wine rack. Dark,dark colour. Cork disintegrated but it wasn't off. Coffee on the nose. The palate was a bit of a mix between a tawny port and a Harvey's Bristol cream. Really interesting and good — 8 years ago

Not for me. A balanced wine that was far better with food than without but far too light for my tastes. Not acidic, not tannic, super easy drinking but for $28 Canadian I wouldn't buy again — 8 years ago

A very interesting Pinot. Every sip seemed different. Nice balance of new world fruit and old world earth. The 2013 is unfiltered. Quite acidic on first sip but really opened up about half way through the second glass. Not going to replace my fav blue mountain Pinot. I have three bottles will leave the rest to age a bit. — 8 years ago

Acid bomb is right. Paired with a cheese fondue. Petrol on the nose citrus fruits and spice on the palate. Not one I'd reach for regularly but good — 8 years ago
