1996 Calera Jensen Mt. Harlem Pinot Noir

Our New Year’s Eve wine is 1996 Calera Jensen Mt. Harlen Pinot Noir. The oxidation is prevalent. After 25 years, the wine has certainly passed its prime, but it is fun enough to enjoy. Goodbye 2021.

大晦日、2021年最後のワインは、1996年Calera Jensen Mt. Harlen Pinot Noir。酸化はだいぶ進んでいる。25年の時を経て、確かに飲み頃を過ぎてはいるが、十分に楽しめるワイン。 2021年よ、さよなら。

Still fresh and vibrant. Bubbles still intact and energetic. Tertiary nose and palate. Mushroom, nutty. Have no idea when I bought this but wow. — 12 years ago

Bottle #1996. Straw colored, fresh chardonnay. Alcohol not fully integrated. Nice though. — 7 years ago

#1996 was flying. Thousand-spice potpourri, tension for days and 10+ ahead. #Échézeaux — 10 years ago

The fruit has not survived long enough to see the rough tannins and sharp acidity of #1996 give way and soften. #gevreychambertin #josephdrouhin #1ercru #burgundy — 11 years ago

Rarely taste Eden Valley SA riesling; more Clare; this different style from Clare; a long backbone on the palate; ageing window said 5-10 years, about right #1996 #riesling #SA #11.5% #elegant #kerostyle — 12 years ago

#1996 vintage .
Glorious. Intense, silky, velvety, sexy. Chateau Latour style here, muscular and tight. Absolutely loved every bit of it. The final is epic! This wine just does not fade away! It builds on the palate forever. Beautiful — 8 years ago

One of my all-time favorite #Burgundian sites, this #1996 Bonnes-Mares is showing beautifully now. Mugnier's wines can be very delicate and elegant even in years such as '96 when many others produced big blockbusters...not so here. This is very attractive and will continue to make you happy for another decade! #Mugnier #BonnesMares #GrandCru — 10 years ago

What a treat. This wine is tasting spectacular right now. Dried herbal notes, cigar box, faint fruitcake notes, cedar, teakwood, cassis, plums, forest floor. Elegant and lean with a bright, red-fruit driven finish. #leovillebarton #1996 #bordeaux #stjulien — 11 years ago

Comparing these two (#2000 & #1996) was a delight...this 1996 was only slightly more evolved with a pronounced nuttiness and a touch more depth...BRAVO #BLANCHOT! #chablis #grandcru #FrancoisRaveneau — 11 years ago
