Way to go Bonneau! I really enjoyed this Pinot with a beef filet for dinner. I've been looking for a California Pinot with a good pepper finish...like we had in late 80's, early 90's. This was very close to what I've been looking for. A little light on the nose, but a full fruit attack balanced with appropriate acidity and tannin. It's the peppery finish that always seals it for me with a memorable Pinot.
