This Monterey County Pinot Noir is fairly dark and very fragrant in the glass. Aromas of black cherry, black tea, licorice and cinnamon put together the kind of display that makes me think of the holidays. Dark fruit dominates the palate, and a full set of tannins accompany the juicy sip. The Los Angeles-based Riboli family recommends pairing their Highlands 41 Pinot with grilled sausage, pasta primavera, baked salmon or roasted duck. I would toss in turkey and ham as excellent pairings. I had mine with lemon and honey Wensleydale cheese, and it was beautiful. — 4 years ago

Dried violets blue plums moody...moods. Agianico is a dark haired vixen who winks at you then ever so lightly punches your arm, laughing. Dark wine sarcastic soul. Balsamic vinegar and prunes. Tannic thunder kept in check. By ripe and dried fruits sturdy and whimsically profound. — 7 years ago

Love the packaging and it was actually quite nice. Smells rich, creamy, malty, and nutty. So is the palate - thick bittersweet chocolate drink. Finishes creamy and syrupy. Admittedly not as peanut buttery as expected, but it's a tasty decadent beer. — 6 years ago

Four hours and forty five minutes of air using Audoze method followed by 45 minutes in the decanter. Likely overkill perhaps an hour less on Audoze method. Beautifully balanced. — 8 years ago

Consumed 03/2020. It has intense flavors, plush mouthfeel, and deep color. Ripe blackberry and plum flavors are complemented by spicy oak from barrel aging. Enjoy with grilled steaks, rich stews, and hearty pastas.. 14.5% alcohol by volume. — 6 years ago

My first thought: this wine is flat. That may sound like a bad thing, but it is not. I am finding my first impressions of wine, thus far, are smooth, flat, grip, buttery (the Chards), sharp, minerally (Pinot Grigio), peppery (which I think is my interpretation of tannins). I am still learning what makes my tongue tell my brain these textures, however. Texture is a good word here. This wine almost lacks a texture. Henceforth, flat. It has wonderful flavors, but this wine does not grip the tongue like some others. Therefore, I like to wash spicy food down with this wine. Because it doesn’t coat my tongue the way a wine with grip does...or even the way a smooth wine may. My husband does not like alcohol. He said this wine was smooth. The bottle says vanilla flavors. Vanilla in scents and flavors = a bit of calm (at least for me). A homy kind of calm. This wine is calm—flat, but it is not homy. Too much flavor for that. I am fascinated by the contradictions in this wine. 🧐. I could accidentally drink the whole bottle in one setting because it is so calm yet full of flavor. — 7 years ago

What a pleasant surprise. Great fruit but not over the top. Some acid and plenty of yum. Great choice for this summer — 8 years ago

Outstanding Willamette Pinot. Cola, cherry, wet earth, and a surprising amount of tannin. — 9 years ago
