Translucent orang-y red, the nose bursts with wafts of cherry, baking spice, sandalwood, and flowers. Hauntingly deep on the palate, with cascading flavors of rhubarb, toasty cranberry, spicy, creamy orange, and forest floor. Delicate in nature but pure and layered. Such an anomaly for Rutherford Pinot (lol). More Pinot-esque than some of the cooler spots on the north coast. A gem.

Deep purple, with a pretty nose of violets, pomegranate juice, sea spray, and lavender. In the mouth it's youthful, with toasted wood notes, pure blackberry, and dried flowers. Minerally acidity, with a tight structure. Fun to drink but could still use a little time.

Deep red with some bricking. This is quite nice! Aromatic, with iron, berry, and mint notes. Slightly herbal, with some earthy, beefy notes. In the mouth it’s still quite structured, with a sweet berry entry, and the layers of eucalyptus, wood, and graphite. Slightly rich on the finish, the tannin is still very much present and might be the winner in the end. But right now, tasty!
