This Pinot from Anderson Valley has been in top form lately and it is truly one of my favorites. I think earth-soaked cherry is the best way to describe it. It's a cab-lover's Pinot with complexity, intense flavor, and a full mouthfeel that isn't always easy to find in California Pinots. I would definitely pop the cork on one of these and see how it has matured since its release. The earthy undertones make me happy.

Tasty, with soft tannins and dark fruit. Eager to see how it drinks in 6-12 months.
