You and I both "discovered" Gauby around the same time. Always a fav of mine. Brilliant that you scored an older vintage!

Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir

Pale burgundy color. All cherry - sour, Bing, Rainer, and earth on the nose. Restrained cherry fruit, minerality and earth, and a lingering finish. Would have guessed Gevrey burgundy. Very good. Interesting contrast to Red Car from last night. — 9 years ago

Fruits are a little muted. Strawberries, raspberries, watermelon, Rainer cherries, dry pink roses, sandy chalk and powdery minerals. Acidity is a little high but other than that a decent sparkling. — 8 years ago

Evenstad Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2010

Happy Birthday Colton! Was not very impressed by this in the tasting room back in 2013, but we bought it anyway because it had just gone #2 on the Spectator top 100. Three years later and I am glad we picked it up!! Pretty ruby color in the glass. Silky smooth, with a light mouth feel and good acid. Classic Pinot red fruits, especially strawberry and Rainer cherry. Actually preferred it served a little cool. — 9 years ago

Trisaetum

Pinot Noir Nuit Blanche 2014

This is a worthy bottle that brings a little something different to the table. Pretty pale copper color. A subtle yet assertive nose of peach, apricot and wet stone. The flavor is reminiscent of watermelon rind and Rainer Cherry and really attacks the sides of the tongue with its prickly acidity. There's some barrel influence in there too which really comes out on the nutty finish. All in all a fun talking piece that could pair well with a variety of seafood or salads or just quench the thirst on a sunny summer afternoon. — 8 years ago

Bill Bradley straight killing it! Blueberry cedar, cherry compote (Rainer) with a aged light red Rainer cherry acidity it's pure loveliness! It stands up against lightly seasoned sous vide ribeye. Silky but your pursuit of the subtleties will give way to nice tannic grip, but it shows some velvet. Melts the fat and sticks around to shake your hand after. — 9 years ago
