Very dark red. Spice, cedar and violet on the nose. Medium to full bodied, sage, blueberries, white pepper, well integrated tannins, smoke, and a long finish. Nothing subtle about this, but still really good.

tasty wine. Cherry, strawberry, tannins, heavier than our prior experience. Delicious with the chicken stew a la Oliver and with the Chinese duck.

Tasted across a horizontal of 2012 Fort Ross Pinots, this is closest to what comes to mind when I think 'Cali pinot'. Not over the top yet fresh red fruit - strawberry, cherry and raspberry. Cool climate with medium acidity and light tannins. Drinking well now and should continue to do so several more years.

A somewhat heavier style of PN, but typical of Sonoma Coast PN fruit. Well made. Not great QPR. I am not sure aging will improve. Drink up.
