What a beautiful expression of Santa Maria Valley Pinot. Color is medium, actually a bit darker than I expected. Nose is fragrant and spacious with a bouncy lilty tone of sweet red fruits. Palate shows the purity in fruit that is strawberries. Again, this shows depth in space while allowing a full dismantling of components right before you, in a good way, a deconsrtuct if you will. It unfolds with some very nice layers of different versions of fruit and red berries. Lots to love here and at a price you can live with. Tannins are well in place while acidity balances the whole enchilada. Verve, elegance and pop is what this is all about all while staying pure and fun. Gotta love the fun. — 11 years ago

Gorgeous nose. Palate in a dried roses cranberry space. Gives the impression of a long future ahead. — 11 years ago

Rioja holds a space in my heart.... Showing some age. Dried red fruits, vanilla, leather, bay leaf with a savory character coming through. — 11 years ago

2007. Tiny diamonds in my glass have scarcely seemed more appropriate than for the riches afforded by this beauty. #chardonnay #savignylesbeaune #burgundy — 11 years ago

Quite nice for a domestic, in a similar space as the Laphroig 10; has some caramel but without the peat and smoke. — 11 years ago

This bottle was disgorged in 2012 and based on either 2007 or 2008. Creamy and light at once, this bottle illustrated the virtue of aging good NV Champagne on the cork for a few years if you are lucky enough to have the space! So good! — 11 years ago
