Dark blue fruit. Very pure with lovely savory fruit with a tangy sour cherry note. A bit Nuits Saint George-like. Still great life to this, with great balance. A treat — 7 years ago

White pepper, vanilla, and purple fruits made this vintage enjoyable with a pesto pasta dinner and retirement into the living room. Lite-medium body and almost a nutty finish. Really enjoying these wines from Sanford. — 8 years ago

Tasted in 2015: First pour a bit hot, even caustic, but after allowing it to breathe, second pour is much more balanced and reveals aromas of tar, ash, black pepper, violets, raspberries, and a hint of cherry cola. More breathing still showed brown sugar and herbal aromas. — 8 years ago

Holy cow this was amazing! Hints of chocolate, caramel and nuts. Almost like a nestle crunch nose but with beautiful fruit. Amazing finish and just gorgeous all around. One of my new favorite Pinots. — 11 years ago

Fantastic once opened! Standout mid-range Californian Pinot Noir, with pleasant berry, oak, and vanilla notes. Clear and transparent, medium body means it is good with or without food. Makes me miss home! — 9 years ago
