Day 1: Cranberry, spice, rose petals, iron, damp earth and mild spices. Nice acidity and refreshing wine. My first Buena Vista Pinot and very nice. A very elegant effort. 91 points Day 2: Really improved over a day. Sour strawberry, violets, minerals, iron, mushrooms, earth and chalk. This is a complex effort that will benefit with some aging. Always liked Buena Vista wines especially the Chardonnay's and now the Pinot's. 92+ points Day 3: Still vibrant and alive. Nice acidity along with sour strawberry, cranberry, iron, violets, mushrooms, dust and spice. A really well made Pinot and not the hot, over the top of some of the Pinots from California in this price point. 92 points Recommendation: Try a bottle and see if you like this more elegant style.

Enjoyed with Korffs and Llanos at our house. Wine is still drinking nice, but I wouldn’t wait more than a year to drink the remaining bottles.

Bold fruit flavors, cranberry, cherry and strawberry. Nice acidity and balance, not 'hot' or overripe. Excellent with grilled chicken.
