  Tasting extremely good right now !! The cork was perfect after a decade in the bottle. This balanced Pinot Noir was consumed over two days. Deep ruby color with no oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas of red raspberry and pomegranate, flavors of red fruit compote, rhubarb with a hint of forest floorl and a medium finish. Popped and poured, but this wine really benefited from gentle oxygen since it was much more soft and integrated on day two. A fairly balanced Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley appellation. This Pinot Noir may be an age worthy wine and may have more years of life left. I sure miss Larry and Shirley.

  Recommended by David Dingley. Since then the vineyard went out of business. Still holding up after 12 years. Joe Webb was the winemaker and went to Foresight.

  Another nice bottle. Rich and ripe dark and red fruits along with spice . Medium body, slightly creamy texture, good structure and great balance. Silky smooth and easy to drink.

  Maybe a little rustic - could be I opened and forgot about in for several days. Was properly sealed up, so lasted well. Fairly dense, fruit and acidity seem pretty balanced. Could rate it higher, I suppose. My fault for not paying closer attention...

  This has become one of my favorite Cali pinot noirs. Red and dark fruits with plenty of richness but not at all overripe. Earth and spice notes add complexity. Medium to full body with great balance and a silky texture. Big and plush, but also somehow seems lean on the palate. Plenty of structure, good grip and a nice, fruity finish. This is simply a terrific wine that continues to improve.
