Nose is very saline. Some hazelnuts.
Palate is rich. No longer oaky (integrated) but it’s not bashful. Lovely salinity. Very Good balance for a rich wine.
I need to have this with chicken with cream sauce and morels.
This is ready to drink.

Family-owned and operated started in 1999 by Dr John and Karen Bergstrom. Medium Ruby with fresh ripe berry fruit flavors, tea and floral spice notes. On the palate, cherry, cranberry and raspberry flavors with complex herb and orange citrus notes. Fine tannins on long finish ending with slight citrus character. Drink now while it’s fresh, will benefit from short-term aging. I like ‘17 better than ‘16. — 5 years ago
Same as the other. Delicious, when it’s on sale 1/2 off at Winn Dixie. — 5 years ago
I really liked this. Seems like it could pair with almost anything. 👍🏻👍🏻 — 6 years ago
Bright and bitter and slightly sour; citrus rind, somewhat herbaceous. Very good, and crushable at 2.8% ABV. — 7 years ago
A bit of reduction on the nose, but I’m digging it — 7 years ago
Kind of a hint of freshly opened bandaids, tastes dry fruity, and smooth. — 5 years ago
Naked wines. Really liked it, full bodied and very fruity. Perfect with steak. Not particularly complex but solid to our big red palate — 6 years ago
Light ruby in color. It’s from Canada. And it smells of dry grasses and wild flowers. Or maybe those are just the smells stuck in my nose. It’s family time here at the lake house in Canada, with all the tension and buried hurts family time can entail. Enter this Pinot noir. The scent of violet, the taste of rose petals, tart cherries, and red currants. It’s new and familiar at the same time. Brings me right back to myself. Families are families, for better or for worse. Then wine, old grapes made in a new way, complex and fleeting, helps give you the long view and takes you right back home. — 6 years ago
Opened and decanted. Tasting earth, leather oak on the finish. Dark fruit up front. Nice but wish the toasted oak was tamed a bit. — 10 months ago
Nose is a bit woody but always classy with tiny berry fruit intensity. Stunning purity. — 2 years ago
Complex nose, spicey oak, green apple, gorgeous minerality, terrific spice, amazing deep minerality and a stunning expansiveness. Really wonderful white burgundy symphony on the nose. Just unreal. What a nose. Tree bark, dry soil. Just stunning. Wow. Juicy, energetic, luscious, fresh, vital, elegant, complex. Wow. What a wine. Just gorgeous. Maybe best Monthelie Blanc I’ve ever had from Boussey. Explosive and wonderful. Spicey as well. A brilliant bottle. Finish is epic. — 4 years ago
Seemed like time for another bottle of Pinot from Redtail. — 5 years ago

Tremendous. Earthy, funky, wild mushroom, forest floor. Also nose of overripe blue fruit and vanilla due to oaking. — 6 years ago

Nose: luscious cherry fruit. Pink roses lilacs. Out of the gate.
Palate: sweet sexy cherry fruit. Delicious. Balancing tart acidity.
