Sorry previous reviewers, you just don’t get it… this is hedonistic Cali Pinot, not Burgundy! The fruit is ripe , the bouquet enticing and the body like velvet. Pure Russian River, pure enjoyment and it gets me high today on 04/20 without resorting to the herb…if you don’t enjoy this you really don’t know wine.

Fruit was very disappointing as it tasted unripe. Body was good but bouquet lacking. Was expecting more from this producer at this price point

Agree with Jeff that this is a classic Washington CS, but didn’t get any sense that the wine had been “heavily manipulated “. That’s why Washington reds are so enjoyable, the Cali boys do the chemistry while the real men to the north let the grapes and the terroir do the talking. I paid $30 and thoroughly enjoyed it with my steak… good CS fruit, dusty tannins and long finish…their Cab Franc is even better
