  Truly unbelievable tasting for this 17 year old Calif Pinot Noir. I liked it in 2010, then kind of forgot I had another bottle. Fruit still there. Color showed little orange. Very nice. But no more. Probably no more for the winery as well?

  Similar to last experience, although vintage is undoubtedly waning.

  Nice earthy PN with soft cherry front and lingering finish.

  Decent enough pinot, with body, but not that much finesse. Not a huge power pinot though: has some PN flavour without going OTT. Perhaps needs a little longer, or the 06 may have been too warm a year. Prefer the outstanding Ramal series a lot more
