I rarely post TNs due to the fact most of the time other people got it right but when I find something is off.

2002 Shea Family Cellars Pinot Noir - Block 32

Nice nose, gamey with lots of bright berries. On the palate the fruit goes sour, with acidic tannins and smoke on the back. After an hour or so, more charcoaled meat (not in a good bacon way though) and little or no fruit. Terribly disjointed with nothing in the middle. The only clunker I've had from this producer. Their regular Pinot, Pommard Clone, Homer Vineyard, and Block 23 are all solid.

edit grammar
