Fair—overripe and showing VA in the nose. Too bad as the underlying fruit is solid even 10 years out.

2007 Marcassin Blue-Slide Ridge Pinot. Drank as the second red wine at the David Gray concert. Worked out well bc the Brunello was much more suited as a food wine and this wine was perfect to drink without food, after dinner and during the actual concert. Tons of fruit balanced with nice minerality. Great weight and texture in the mouth. Really enjoyed!

Over ten years in the bottle and still satisfying. Secondary flavors abound.
