This is a high quality Pinot Noir. Excellent perfume of fresh cut flowers and ripe berries. This is a refined Pinot, It is in a really good place now. Red ripe cherry fruit. Secondary nuance is lacking, but the fruit and refinement carries this wine. Mouthfeel is luxurious, refined and smooth. Very pleasurable.
Super good with chicken pot pie.

We PNP'd at dinner. At first the wine was hot but as the evening progressed it softened and brought out nice flavors of red fruit and chocolate. The finish was of medium length.

Very tight at first but after 30 minutes opened into a terrific, silky, complex Pinot. Medium body, strawberry, cherries, clove and pepper, touch of earth. As good a Pinot as I have had in a long time. Much ageing potential as well.

A much more serious wine. I've been going through the line-up here, and I've liked what I've tasted so far, but this is the most complete of the wines and pretty decent value at that.

Heavy on the alcohol side. Way pasts its peak now.

Vanilla and some fruit turning into a rather short finish.

Beautiful cherry fruit on the nose. Quite alcoholic, but not heavy at all; delicious fruit and long finish.

What a terrific bottle of pinot - Normally i like california Pinot but this Pinot is good and complex as it gets.
Better (my opinion) then Sea Smoke.

Very ripe, but still with some structure. Fragrant on the nose and luscious mouthfeel. Very nice, don't wait.
