A nose of cherry and spice, dark garnet in color. A medium bodied single vineyard Pinot with currants, cherries, and raspberries, found it unbalanced, was disappointed since I have wanted to try this producer's wine, much better values out there.
- Garnet color - Garnet color in the glass, slightly limited nose. On the palate very sweet cherry, blackberry, cola going on. After an hour the sweetness tamed back, but was still there.

Lovely but not much in the way of tannins remain.

Perfect with some grilled sirloin and a fresh blackberry sauce.

Not quite as good as '07 but still delicious. '08 is still very fruit forward but the '07 was more jammy making it more interesting IMHO.

Still a bit tightly wound, but what a great core of fruit!
