Cooked despite good storage. Just not made to age. Oxidized and bitter. Lost in the cellar, found when attempting to drink up some of the old ones.

More brash than most, this is not where you turn if you’re looking for subtle and elegant Pinot. Prominate fruit right up front and a definite punch. Flavors profile is tasty and the wine has a lovely texture, however acidity is too high and leaves the drink out of balance. Still quite enjoyable, probably better suited with food, actually paired well with a little spiciness.

Better impressions than the first bottle. On the more austere side.
Decent balance. Herbal and more peppery than imagined 2 years ago.

Medium-light garnet in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, raspberries & mulberries with overtones of spices notes of nutmeg & floral notes, earthy/dusty, minerals, some herbs & a slight hint of oak/vanilla in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & raspberries with spices, minerals, some cola & a hint of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with extended airing but should continue to develop further with additional aging.

Garnet colored with an aroma of cranberry, strawberry, some mineral and mushroom. Smooth wine with medium acidity, long pleasant finish. Wish I had more...

Past its prime, but still a nice wine. I would have loved this wine if I could have tasted it a few years ago, but now it lacks body.

First things first, the nose on this wine is great; bright fruit cocktail and honeysuckle. On the palate, impressive acidity and a relatively full mouthfeel. The wine is a little reductive upon opening but it quickly comes around. Spicy with flavors of vanilla, yellow and green apple, canned pineapple, and citrus fruits. The finish is average in length.

Well-made and well put together wine, but just a little lacking in pizzazz for me. A good Last Bottle value.

Retail $30. Under DIAM10. We were at a favorite local restaurant and I found this on the list for $34, which was essentially retail. Giddy-up. Pale straw in the glass with pineapple and lemon curd on the nose. The palate is rich, even quite rich, with intense fruit, vanilla, and a voluptuous mouthfeel. Yowza. 92 points.

Reduction on the nose along with citrus fruit. Lean, mineral core, good length on the finish. Solid!

I am not usually a fan of Pinot's and really enjoyed this one. I tasted it at the winery for a party and bought it. It was equally enjoyable the second time. It had nice structure and fruit which I don't usually find in pinot's I taste. I'm a big Napa Cab fan but would recommend this pinot which cheese, fish, poultry or really anything to eat.

The Fifth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir: Retail $68. Black, dark fruit, even plum, wonderful nose, another darker side of Pinot. A touch of earth, even pine. Wonderful on the palate as well, dark, on the verge of brooding. Nice 93 points.

The Fifth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir: Retail $68. A bit of oak and vanilla with a cherry cream pie vibe. Loads of fruit on the palate with considerable earth. The acidity doesn't really kick in until just before the finish. 90 points.
