So so tasty. So scary addictive. Sam Kaplan is making delicious PN. Loads of fresh red berry fruits, cinnamon, all spice, nutmeg, cocoa and light vanilla sprinkle. Smooth palate with ripe tannins, balanced acidity on long finish. Opulent Pinot for sure!

3 hr decant. Black oil color on this Lokoya ‘14 Diamond Mtn. Scorched black fruits, tobacco, rich minerals, fresh spring flowers, worn leather, dark chocolate and hints of graphite. Incredible texture, big wine but light on its feet, floating acidity, ripe tannins on long finish.

One of the best Kamen Cabs I ever had. Slight brownish hue. The ‘15 is at an almost perfect spot palate-wise. Explosion of flavors, layer upon layer of freshly picked blackberry fruit, currants, and slightly black plum. Oak is way in the back, the fruit is so fresh and vibrant. The acidity is so balanced, the tannins have resolved. There are additional notes of mint, dark chocolate, worn leather and eucalyptus. Excellent from start to finish.
