A friend of a friend of my wife asked me try to try this new production Pinot they are making. This is produced & bottled by Pellegrini Bros but is a new Pinot called P:4. Sour mid red fruits, raspberry candy and red florals on the nose. The palate is candied, ripe, juicy; black raspberries, black cherries, strawberries, cherries, cola, soft subtle sweet spices, cinnamon, just a hint of vanilla, limestone, soft crushed brown volcanic minerals, red fresh florals, nice acidity, good mouth presence, good balance and long shinny fruit finish. Drinks well very young. Surpassing my initial expectations. A wine to acquire and a wine to pay close attention going forward. $65 from the winery. It's a crossroads of CA Pinot & Burgundian style with a dominating CA side. 13.8% on the alcohol which is fairly reasonable in today's CA wine environment. — 8 years ago

Drinking great. Drink now. Deteriorated after open a bit. But it came back to finish beautifully!! — 7 years ago
Wow, full bodied and mouth coating with a barnyard nose which is typical of a SLH Pinot. Nice long finish. Outstanding wine at this price point. Might convert some Cab folks over from the dark side. Found some at the Crossroads Safeway. — 9 years ago
2008 vintage. Fruit is at a great crossroads of fresh and youthful and more mature and nuanced. Very red fruit with raspberry, cranberry, tart red cherry, dried violet, dried mint, sage, autumn leaves, pencil lead, little sawdust. Very elegant expression of Zinfandel. — 9 years ago
At the crossroads between youthfulness and maturity. A true pleasure if you enjoy fruit with softening tannins and acidity. Nothing out of place - it is delicious. — 10 years ago

Brazilian steakhouse and a night tour of Stanford 🌲 🏈 . Thanks for the great hospitality Michael & Henrik, look forward to more visits.
Now the wine:
Raspberries, floral notes, toasted oak, light body. Paired well with the filet and skirt steak. The Pelissa vineyard is located on Oakville Crossroads directlybehind the family winery, creating this Estate grown & produced Zinfandel. — 8 years ago
What pairs with a rainy, cold night by the fire? Flora Springs Winery Petit Verdot. Dark and brooding, spicy and plush, this 100% Petit Verdot is from their Crossroads Vineyard in Oakville and their Pope Valley vineyard. It's aged 19 months in seasoned French oak. Only 210 cases made exclusively for sale at the winery. $50. — 9 years ago
2009 vintage. At perfect crossroads of age and youthfulness. Showing Prüm typicity with spönti and leesy aromas on the nose. Strong apricot, poached pear, orange peel, Gala apple, white flowers, orange blossoms, and crushed rocks on the palate. Starting to develop secondary notes of melted plastic or oil, but still very vivid acidity. Long finish and very enjoyable. — 9 years ago
Garage style, mystery blend. 24.50, icon premium. Blend of 5 grapes. Changes every vintage. Great wine, very accessible for an icon wine. Fresh, great fruit, good backbone. 12.5% alcohol — 10 years ago
Nice everyday red blend to have on hand. Definitely needs time to breathe. Generally liked by all red wine drinkers. Cheapest I've seen is $9.99 at Total Wine in Crossroads. — 10 years ago
