Initially quite closed showing balance but not much more than the Williams Selyem style acidity in citrus profile but on day three it opened to a really elegant wine with cherry, blood orange, and black tea while being soft and round. Needs a few years to really sing, this is a great vineyard — 7 years ago
This wine screams “cherries!” ....red and black cherry with notes of cola and hints of allspice. Opens beautifully and still has tannic backbone. Structure and good mouth feel. A beautiful Pinot. — 7 years ago

Deep red opaque color with intense red cherries in the nose. On entry huge flavors of Zinfandel but slightly over the top with alcohol. Huge finish marred by >15% alcohol. Lovely aromas and flavors in the mouth despite the off putting alcohol. — 7 years ago
Delicious. Full bodied, nice acidity and the right amount of oak. — 7 years ago
