This Azaya (our last 2013 bottle) might be starting to tail off just a bit from it's excellent peak, but still very solid and a great dinner offering at this point. Current community end date of 2021 still sounds about right.

The Azaya Ranch (but from 2014) was the favorite of our guests visiting the winery from Florida... so we opened a 2013 at home to give them another shot at it. Beautiful fruit. Our last bottle of the 2013 will be sitting here for awhile, no doubt.

This was a nice surprise -- have had some solid Pinots from Marin before, but this is a notch or two above any of them. Incredibly aromatic, with a silky, complex, and pure palate. Layers of baking spices, cranberry, creme anglaise, and loads of light-but-rich black cherry. As with all DG single-vineyards, this is an expensive wine, but in this case worth every penny.
