Le Clos Jordanne Village Reserve Pinot Noir 2011, VQA Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$30.00
>try one in 2015 otherwise 2016-2018
approx 2016...tried one and was disappointed, a little harsh I thought
Sept 2018....better this time around, with about 15 minutes aeration, still not worth the asking price, had with shrimp pesto pasta (Jane's recipe?)
Jan 2019....skunky...think was a bad cork (dried out).
Dont think there any left...dont know if had 3 or 4...either way pretty sure all gone.

2021-22
have on its own, with friends, decant hours ahead....winter wine?
....this wasn't one of the better years, maybe share with friends either the 2015 or 2017
May 6 2023...enjoyed during a belated celebration of Crystal's birthday (and Jenn's), had with steak. After 3 hours decant, still believe it needed more time. After 5 hours, perfect! Despite not being a banner vintage, still enjoyed and looking forward to trying 2015 and 2017.
