Nice cherry notes but that's about all. Done in a very light style, all in all a bit underwhelming for a true Pinot hound. Certainly not up to the standards of the Santa Lucia AVA nearby.

Difinite cola on the nose, maybe even Root Beer! This is nice pinot. Not a fruit bomb, a bit hot, but I like the way the elements come together. Medium body, a bit green on the finish.

Family Winemakers 25th Anniversary Tasting, I remember their first at the Hyatt Embarcadero. Nose of bacon, dark fruit, more of the same on the palate, good acid for balance and ageing potential, medium/big body, lovely to taste, long finish.
