This wine was full of earth, stone and vegetables. Probably the latest this can be enjoyed, but it was enjoyed colder than it normally should be which may have helped it taste younger than it is.

Best this wine has ever been. Very impressive straight out of the opened bottle and as dark and full bodied as Napa Merlots and Cabernet Sauvignons. Aromatically fruity with red cherry, black cherry, and pomegranate. Rich, savory, and juicy in the mouth, with bright and rounding acidity, added fruit of plum and blackberry, a caressing texture, and tannin that is supportive and drying. Will easily be as good for another 5 years. I should have bought cases of this.

An excellent Pinot Noir in the style of the better Sonoma Coast Pinots. Firm drying tannins, high acidity, and strong fruit centered on pomegranate with black and red cherry. However, the wine gets really special only several days after being opened.

Lighter in the mouth, fresh and green on the nose, even black and red berry on the finish.

Well made, with ripe red fruits and earth on the nose. Ripe cherries and smoked spice on the palate, with a drying finish. Enjoyable.
