  This was ok. Guests liked it more than I did. Red cherries and typical California Pinot zest. it's a crowd pleaser because they 'll see it as "smooth" - but at $40+ - just stick to the larger production HC bottlings for $10 less dollars.

  Much better than last year. Very bright cherry with a little peppery backbone. Everything is resolving nicely but the flavors are still big and bright. Nice drinking experience. Will save the last one for next year.

  Dark and rich with nice RRV Pinot flavors. Drinking well now but could probably age another couple years.

  Seems a little off and may be past its prime or a bad bottle. Even let it sit a day after drinking one glass. Combination of high acidity and not balanced by the fruit.

  Nice red fruit and cola nose, color is a dark ruby. This is a nice bottle but doesn't have the depth of top tier Pinots. cherry, cola and pepper on the palate. This wine teases. On palate it is pleasant and seems to be offering more but more never quite materializes. It is enjoyable but not sure if the QPR is there.
