Drinking very nicely. Delicious. Notes of strawberry, cotton candy, candies apple and cherry vanilla cola. Clearly Carneros in style, heavy in fruit, big bodied, could use a bit more freshness and acidity but really good example and in a good place.

Nicely structured wine with gentle acid and a nice mouthfeel. Cherry, leather, and a light floral note on the nose. In the mouth, more cherry, soft tannins, and wonderfully long finish that leaves raspberries lingering...
Drink this now.

Nice wine with structure and intensity. A bit unorganized at present and probably would do well with some more age in the bottle. Plums, blackberries, white pepper, moss, and cedar all present.

Perfume of Blackberry, wet rocks, dried rose petal and forrest floor. More dark fruit along with sandal wood and mineral palate. Light bodied pinot is very surprising considering the dark fruit proflie. Some what perplexing wine. Drink now-2012. 87 pts.

Has some age, but a delicious glass of wine. Enjoyed with a great pork roast.
