Opened with dark fruit notes and hints of cranberries on the nose, more of the same on the palate, hints of herbs, bacon, and spice, tasty, mouthfilling, delicious wine, medium long finish, easy to drink, at its peak now.

I usually love Goldeneye, and The Narrows is often my favorite. This 06... NOT one of my favorites. Deinfitely not worth the price. 07 & 09 are so much better.

Drank with New Year's Turkey. Opened and poured. Excellent wine, with lots of fruit yet significant complexity, with flavors that changed on the toungue.

The black cherry is elegant and deep (yet almost candied), with nuances of boysenberry and blackberry. Dried herb, sage, tea, pine and forest floor nuances. From their vineyard with the coolest climate.

After an hour of decanting it retained some mineral and eucalyptus flavors and after 2 hrs. it was full structured with fruit and earthiness. Paired well with wild mushroom spinach lasagna.

A Week in Mendocino; 10/6/2009-10/11/2009: flowers, cherries and oak on the nose. it has a gorgeous mouthfeel and dense tar, black cherries, mocha and hints of mushroom. this is really mineral-driven and earthy, but its also really dense on the palate. it really coats the palate and there's a caramel flavor on the long finish. excellent stuff.

Outstanding Pinot. Another Duckhorn success. Solid fruit, no harsh tannins or acid. Excellent soft lingering finish.

A truly magnificent pinot. Served with roast duck with a tart fruit glaze - perfect!
