Basic ordinary California Pinot noir: not super fruity, not super minerally, not super astringent, not super dry. In my opinion, not worth a repeat performance.

Medium-deep red ruby in color. Forward, attractive & aromatic nose of ripe fruit aromas of red cherries, strawberries & raspberries with overtones of exotic spices of allspice & cloves, floral notes, cola notes, earthy, herbs & minerals in the background. Medium bodied with a good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe red fruit flavors of sweet cherries, strawberries & tart cranberries with spices, earthiness, cherry-cola & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present and has some limited potential for continued development with an additional year or two of further aging.

Very solid with good a concentration of ripe blue and black berries balanced by grippy tannins. Wine needs some more time to develop into an even better wine with a broader flavor profile.
