Ripe berries, touch of sweet spice, nicely balanced. Flirted with tasting over extracted but stayed in bounds, making this a quite lush, but by no means overbearing bottle. A fleshy CA pinot, much fuller than the medium color and clear edges would suggest. Oak present but in the background. Decent length. A very nice effort. Very good QPR, even at the price. Drink up -- at maturity.

A bit darker and brooding Brewer Clifton Pinot Noir with the whole cluster fermentation evident. An almost savory element uplifted by minerals and red and dark fruit. Very nice fruit with a bit of cranberry and red berries.

dark color with bit of browned sherry-like appearance, forward nose with spices and a hint of mahogany, light to medium body, bit acidic on palate and finish

Lovely nose of black cherries, and dark berries. Strong minerality. Well balanced with long finish.
