Fruit comes from the coolest coastal parts of this appellation, linked by the influence of the Pacific’s cool marine air, which delays ripening. Ruby with rich berry fruit, citrus and floral spice. On the palate, strawberry and cherry, tangy, with cedar notes and earthy tones. Bright acidity, soft expressive tannins, long finish ending with mineral and cedar spice. Very nice, drink now & over next 5 years. — 5 years ago

This is a new Pinot Noir for me and will become a go to. It is fruit forward (just how I like it), with a little mint and herbs. Better after some time to aerate. — 6 years ago

Took a couple days for this wine to open up and to really start strutting its stuff. Vibrant, primary, dark cherry fruit tones meet pine forest, spice, and licorice nuances. With the extended aeration, an intriguing mineral note also developed. Svelte (12.8%), yet vivacious and intimating appealing future complexities. Would be fun try again in 8+ years. — 11 years ago

Most people know @Cathy Corison for her restrained Cabernet Sauvignon, but I think that she makes the best gewurztraminer around. I've sat on this one for some time, and it's just delightful. — 5 years ago

Excellent dried fruit and spice notes followed up by lush tastes of tart cherry, chocolate and spice. A very elegant and subtle wine with a finish of fruit and some earthiness. Another really good California Pinot in a more Burgundian style. Love it! — 10 years ago
