  P&P with about 25 min of airtime in the glass before pouncing. Aromas comprise mostly of Sassafras along with root vegetables and some sweet baking type spices. Good showing, I think the Louise vineyard is the lowest in elevation amongst the ‘ladies’ aka the other Cristom single vineyards, and the earliest to mature. Seems about right, with the dark spice laden fruit fully woven into the wines nooks and crannies - very clean, with good closing bite on the finish. No danger of falling off a cliff, but it’s ready.

  This is stunning! Tannins have softened up, fruit has gotten a bit more serious. Drinking wonderfully !

  Tight on opening, needed about 20 minutes to start showing floral and raspberry aromas, also herbs, licorice and baking spice, chalky finish. Lively, with a lovely long finish. A great match with Thanksgiving dinner.
