Great Pinot with solid depth and balance. Plenty of spiced black cherry and raspberry fruit. Cola, licorice, and subdued cedar create lots to appreciate. 2010 can probably age gracefully for another 5 years.

Tasted in 2015: A cool-climate Central Coast delight rich with floral and mineral tones. Bouquet licorice, iodine, seaweed, raspberries, and anise. Beautiful, lengthy finish. Stunning.

Delicious Pinot, and seems about the right timing with the 2010... Still tons of dark even black cherry fruit that has layers of clean, loamy earth and exotically spiced, orange peel infused baking chocolate. Pretty amazing!

Yes! Cycled past the vines earlier today. Should be required for optimum drinking.

Plummy, tart cherry, molasses and unxious. Layered. Soft and silky. Finishes with a little heat and slight bitter.

Plum, cherry, almost Syrah-like. Big flavors.

Delicious Pinot Noir. Very fruity and less earthy.
