Fort Ross FRV Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2013: Beautiful ruby-red color. Elegant Balance. Silky tannins. Great acidity. Dark fruit (blackberry, currant, plum). Red fruit (cranberry, cherry, pomegranate). Menthol. Spice. Earth. One of my absolute favorite Sonoma Coast Pinots and a perfect match for today’s #tacotuesday Cheers🍷 — 5 years ago

Fabulously surprising! This wine is one of those warm robust bear humans who wraps you in a hug that doesn’t smother you, it frees you. It’s fresh. Oodles of dark berries and plums plus vanilla and a very herbal earthy thing and something like leather. So very very good. — 6 years ago

Bought at Costco for $25 or so. Warm colors and lovely fruits of pinot noir. Worth the money — 6 years ago

Really incredible wine. Not paired with any food, the wine is flavorful, quenching w/ oak flavor adding the right dryness and notes of plum & vanilla to finish - really well balanced and opened well. Bottled was empty far too quickly : ) — 5 years ago

16’ Paul Hobbs Ross Station Chardonnay. Throw this into a decanter for an hour. Certainly won’t hurt it
Bright golden color. Nose smells like honeycomb, crushed rock. Palate- apricot, peach, toasted hazelnut. Medium to full-bodied & intensely flavorful in the mouth, it's balanced by very juicy acidity. Nicely made Chardonnay. — 5 years ago

Something very clean and elemental about this wine, and something Bordelaise as well, given the depth, lack of California over-ripeness and relative inaccessibility in youth. Not an "easy" wine, but neither is young Lynch Bages. — 8 years ago

Strong black pepper nose, with blueberry and jasmine. Wonderfully complex on the palate with dancing ripe red currants and blueberries. Amazing and delicious. Slight tannins and long, smooth finish. — 5 years ago

Fort Ross Seaview Bordeaux blend. Old world style. Truffle, cedar & cassis nose. Fresh style on the palate. Drinks more Super Tuscan than Bordeaux. Black currant & tobacco, but loads of fresh acid. Drinks great with a pork ragu & pasta. Definitely one to seek out. — 6 years ago

Nice acid, pear and cherry on the nose and it tastes like baking spices and a bit of crabapple. 👍🏻 — 8 years ago
