Loving this, it's a Pinot with all the elements I love in Cayuse — 12 years ago
Rose made by Cayuse for their staff only. Bottle given to me. Great acid, just a touch off dry, perfect with food. — 10 years ago
Nose is has a nice earthy funk, reminds me of drinking Cayuse wines. The palate is velvety and provides an excellent red fruit profile, nice spicy backbone , great lasting finish. — 10 years ago
2005 Summerland serial number 6043. Charred earth and meaty smoky loveliness that really reminded me of Cayuse for a moment. Bold terroir and a backdraft of black pepper on an extracted plummy black nasty fruit stuffed mushroom and peat cloud. Real depth of character stuff, where you really feel this wine has your back as your guns smoke and bluster from a wet foxhole. Straight cover fire for hours. Then you realize your brother is losing lifeblood, literally baking in a fever, and you are the one who gets to live with him in his greatest moment, shining like a flame. Another hour, and the sun has set, summer is over, the smoke is clearing to reveal a tired, injured if glorious wine that really was at its best in that precise moment, and adumbrates in the long shadow of death. — 11 years ago

Showing very nicely for its age. Opens up after an hour to meaty and herbal aromas. — 10 years ago
