The Clark & Telephone Vineyard PN gave me a long lasting impression, and this Las Alturas is very similar in style in its richness and intensity.

Ripe plum, blackberry jam, eucalyptus, fig, black tea, and Chinese medicinal herbs bursting on the nose. Palate has more texture and a more elegant feel with dark chocolate and spice. Firm and a bit dusty tannins. This tastes more like a blend of Zinfandel and Cab. Nice! But again this is not the type of PN I like. — 7 years ago

Exquisite bubbles that drink like a aged red Burgundy with bubbles . Favors of orange zest, fig, brioche , nuts and minerals all unfold with perfect balance of flavors and effervescence. Wow! — 8 years ago

I'm not a Pinot Noir lover, probably because they cost too much for a good one, but received this as a gift and really liked it. — 9 years ago

Almost flawless wine from the Wizard of Spring Mtn. What a mastery he has of an odd vintage. Red currants, fig, sous-bois. Opened 24 hours. — 10 years ago

CADE 2014 cabernet sauvignon from Howell Mountain. Well. You know what Im going to say... Good God Almighty! What an incredible 2014 Cali Cab! It opens with an explosion of blackberry and blueberry and dark currant. With a hint of fig in the background. Then ever so smoothly comes the buttery velvet mid palate. Followed by big OAK and SMOKE. Followed by the sprinkling of spice and black pepper. The finale is a semi dry pavement of deliciousness that a NASCAR driver would drool over. And no I’m not talking beer and whiskey! - Dr Todd and Herron Family Wines. — 6 years ago

#LIKEABOSS!
Nose of crushed leather furniture, cigar box, fig, Christmas cake, plum & hints of a red cherry cordial
Still a pop of acidity with the fruit, but richness dominated adding raisin to the flavors along w feral animale & shaved dark chocolate taking over on the lengthy finish — 8 years ago

Drinking like a French Pinot, the bouquet is evocative of cherries, strawberries, tea, forest floor, and crushed crushed flower, while the pallet shines with black cherry, tea, hints of cinnamon and allspice, and earth. A consummate exemplar of Willamette Valley. Get 1 of the 200 cases while you can. — 9 years ago

Heck of a hosting by @Weston Eidson last night for the City Club wine group. All wines were tasted blind.

Wonderful finish to the evening. It didn’t have as much sweetness to it as I normally think Graham’s does. Mixed berry compote, graham cracker, nutty, and cherry liqueur infused fig. My guess here was late 80s/early 90s port. — 6 years ago

WNH Southern gathering hosted by @Mike R and old Heitz vertical (70,74,85) sourced by @Martin G Rivard (from Benchmark) who also contributed some on his own dime. This ‘70 started with a wet cardboard musty nose and a slightly hollow mid palate and astringent finish. As the evening evolved and the steak showed up the wine did a complete 180. More tannins than fruit but it was a structured beauty that may not be at it’s peak but is still a gorgeous wine. Ripe plum, stewed fig, bayleaf. I didn’t get any eucalyptus from this but there’s a strong earthy, old world with a CA spin vibe. After dinner and before the fire pit some of us finished the decanter of this and were impressed at how it was still ascending hours after being opened. — 8 years ago

Co-WOTN. So much going on here and so pure and substantial for a 40 year old wine. Rich fig, smoke, forest floor, sandalwood, mushroom and an array of dark fruits. Not much bricking. Still looks like a 10 year old wine in the glass. — 10 years ago
