  Bottle was in a perfect condition. PnP. Upon opening, noticeable bretty barnyard on the nose that sort of blew away after about an hour. Typical Pinot fruit with some stemmy character. Color as well as palate seems slightly advanced, but in a good way. Medium acidity, light tannin that is just enough to give the wine structure. Very enjoyable. Will try again in a year or two.

  Modern style. Noticeable oak and extraction. Pretty boring

  Blind tasting. Superb rasberry juice. Mouth dense, juicy, lively with shy tertiary nose. Suberp. A style like a new Zealand pinot.

  Impressions from the 2014 La Paulee Verticals Tasting (Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco): Very herbaceous. Stringy texture, little fruit. Could this really be a 2009??

  On first opening, the overwhelming scents of wood shavings and coffee grounds had me thinking that this was as far along the right tail of the oakiness bell curve as I ever tend to experience, but the wood did relax its grip and it turned out to be a very pleasant wine, with some stony earthiness peaking through and a refinement that seemed especially impressive -- there is really fine-grained, lacey tannin here and a very slender feminine figure.
