  Again, better on day 2. Consistent notes from last tasting. Cherry on the nose with rich plum taste and thinner finish. Some cola as it warmed. Score [ 50 + 4 + 12 + 16 + 7 ] = 89.

  Much better on day 2. Almost unapproachable out of the bottle. Needs at least an hour to open. Cherry on the nose with rich plum taste and thin finish. Reminds me of Adobe Road pinot noir. Score [50 + 4 + 12 + 16 + 7 ] = 89.

  Excellent bottle of PN. I had originally wanted to order a Frank Family Cab and they were out. The restaurant suggested this. It was very good. Spicy, cola, bing cherries. I would seek out more.

  Vintage Select Industry Tasting (Vintage Select Warehouse, Houston, TX): Shows typical RRV notes of black cherry, pie cherry, and clove. On the palate rich with bright cherries and spice. Decent finish. Very good.
