very nice example of a new world pinot noir, I tasted leather, blackberry and the last days of summer, heat was well hidden by the fruit which was forward with the leather on the back, delicious

Deep crimson in color, this wine reveals plum, raspberry and Asian spices on the nose. The mouth feel is fuller bodied with a defined spicy element and strawberry undertones. The finish is a little short and the heat from the 14.5% abv is evident.
Purchased for $55US, this was a big disappointment given its high price point. I've had many better wines at half the cost.
Deep crimson color, almost opaque. Great nose of dark berries, spice, and dried leaves. I'm guessing there is whole cluster which adds a level of complexity. Oak forward notes with mild red berries, medium plus acid. Very long finish, 60 seconds easy.

Garnet color. Nose of musty oak with backdrop of fruit. Not flimsy. Nice smooth flavor with balanced finish. Sonoma makes you want some moa!
