  with tom anchovy toast and poached salmon. This was very good. Nice to have a bit of age on it. Good fresh color, nice balanced nose of fruit and spice. Solid on palate, not heavy but in fact very elegant. I should better check when i have thse last and keep the bottles for further apart drinking. Good wine!

  w spagethi clam sauce. Nice golden color, on nose it got a bit sharp. As it was open for about 2 hrs, it got better, it truly openend up. Finish was still a bit disjointed towards spice/hot, but overall actually a good wine because the fruit and oak are suppressed and not typical for california. Actually in the end i'd call this elegant with enough fruit and balance!

  Out of balance, way too much oak. Overpowered any semblance of fruit flavor. Very disappointing as I have enjoyed several other years of this wine. Perhaps just a bad bottle.
