Complex but elegant with a silky texture and a full finish. Popped and poured and it really started to fully open after 2 hours. This will probably drink well for many years to come

Classic Pinot nose. Bought 3 bottles for $15/ea with my employee discount during my short stint with MDL. Slightly tart cherry, cedar chips. Beautiful translucent, brick red color. "06 was not supposed to be a very good year for Pinot in Sonoma (87 compared to 92-94 for '05, '07-'10), but good wine makers make good wines. Period.

(Siduri Pinot Noir Van der Kamp Vineyard) Light red color; sandalwood and tart cherry nose; big tart cherry palate that seems to lack complexity, needs time; medium-plus finish

Lovely and smooth. Mature and ready to drink now, but no rush.

Good, but not great. Light strawberry, mild sweetness - a pleasant wine, and easy to drink but not as complex as the nose would hint at.

Bzukaitis nails it. Subtle hint of cola on entry. Fabulous Cal Pinot with finesse. Worth the wait. Drink up if you have it.
