94 Points

Saturday, February 19, 2011 - Beautifully constructed pinot, what stands out is the deep rich color and intense flavors, and long, silky, fruitful finish. Very excited about this bottling, but refrained from giving this an even higher score only because I feel a few years of cellaring would further improve this already amazing wine. Dazzling aromas that wafts even before we put our nose in the glass. Luscious aromas of cinnamon sugar and tobacco support the rich pinot fruits. Flavors are equally intense, sweet cherries and licorice, with crisp acidity, cola, and minerality, with long, silky, peppery finish that avoids the metallic end that big pinots can sometimes deliver.
