Community Tasting Note

Sheldog Likes this wine:

Wednesday, June 12, 2013 - Beautiful dark (for a Pinot) ruby red with nice slow legs signaling the drinker that they are in for a treat. Bold nose but not of fruit but of leather, spice, oak and just a hint of smoke. Somewhat of a mineral (slate) presence on the front of the palate with distinct tartness of cranberry on the back of the palate. The tart, leather finish continues for some time making for a nice slow-drinking elegant wine. If you like a lot of fruit in your Pinots then this won't be a wine for you. But if you like a complex, dry Pinot that is an open window to its soil and growing conditions, you will love it. This will probably continue to develop and drink for another few years. I will wait until 2014 to drink another (assuming I can wait).
