This is Clos Pepe’s Dark Side bottling, which they only made a few times. What an excellent PN, loaded with dark cherries, other dark fruits and some cola. There was a little left in the decanter about an hour or so after dinner and the fruit was gone as well as the long sweet finish. I had opened and decanted it about an hour before dinner and maybe that was too much time but got through dinner fine. — 8 months ago

Steely, mineral driven, some apple, lemon zest, a nice long finish. — a year ago

Alma Rosa Pinot Noir 2017: Medium-body. Perfect balance & acidity. Fine soft tannins. Aromas of red fruits & cedar with bright red fruits notes of cherry, raspberry, strawberry & cola. Smooth spiced finish. For me, this was an outstanding Central CA Pinot Noir; not overpowering, simply pleasant! Perfect Pinot Noir characteristics that can be complemented with just about any meal and for me, I paired it with a grilled beef kebab Roka salad. Great day to all! Cheers🍷 — 2 years ago

Really wish I had another one!! Toasted almond and brioche aromas with citrus and cherry. I think it’s my favorite Sea Spray vintage yet! — 4 months ago

2021. I hadn’t tried any Sandhi wines yet and had settled on having a Pinot Noir at The Oven with dinner, but when we stopped into bin105 for a glass and saw this bottle in the cooler… crisp, floral, nutty, and a little reduction on the nose. — 5 months ago

Ruby red color with aromas of dark berry fruits, cedar and spicy forest floor notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry, blackberry, and crushed red cherries with notes of cedar and baking spice, lively acidity, fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit and earthy notes. Drinking well! Pair this with a pork roast or Salmon with a balsamic glaze. — 7 months ago

Awesome! Cork appeared soaked through but didn’t seem to impact the wine. Rich flavors of butter, cream, and vanilla. Very white burg like. Great QPR! — 2 years ago

Every now and again I crave a hedonistic Pinot, and winemaker Russell Bevan‘s M.O. is BIG in every category. All knobs are turned up. — 4 years ago

I’d say these wines are overrated. Second of the 2012’s I picked up. Dark fruit, supple but not that interesting. — 4 months ago

Such a young wine. Drinks really well now but I love older Chardonnay so this would be fun to try in a decade or so. — 5 months ago
