Wow! This is drinking beautifully right now. PnP! Served at family dinner with grilled tuna and pesto sauce. Made for a lovely pairing! Wine has lots of fruit but extremely well-balanced. Cherry and cola flavors definitely present. Truly a gorgeous Sonoma Pinot that shows how well W-S wines age. This one should drink well for another year or two, maybe longer. But it is so lovely now, why wait?

Red fruit on the nose with a bit of earthiness starting to show. Flavors still showing good fruit and surprising acidity. Tannins have softened nicely, and this will drink well for at least a few more years. Not the most textured in terms of complexity, but a good food wine for sure.

Drank at BBQ at Laidley street. Showing its age, but still hanging together (from a magnum). Cherry fruit, anise, some cola, modest tannin and acidity at this point. Drink up.

Well-balanced, nice age (drink now as it's likely a bit past it's peak), good acid. Fruit flavors becoming a bit more muted as other flavors come forward. Very smooth with soft tannins from age.

Fantastic. Good body, excellent aged Pinot nose. Drinking beautifully now, but can easily go longer.
