A great example of what CA Pinot Noir should be. Balanced, elegant, with significant fruit, but plenty of acid to balance, fully resolved tannins, loads of Pinot Noir barnyard funk and a long, mineral-rich finish . Drinking well ... too bad this was the last one.

A great light wine that I definitely highly recommend. When poured the wine has a great plum, amberish color with no sediment and quick legs. At first strong hints of fruit/cherry & blackcurrants were very noticeable to taste cranberry & strawberry were very prevalent. This wine got much better after it sat with time to breath. Will be buying more bottles to add to my collection.

Robe rubis grenat. Arômes séduisantes de cerise, groseille, terre humide, bois de santal et gousse de vanille. La bouche déploie des saveurs de petits fruits des champs, herbes sauvages et chêne torréfié. Superbe Pinot Noir.

Consistently delicious, with a depth of mocha in the finish delights. More depth of flavor than many American Pinot Noirs, I'm always impressed each time I drink this.

Medium ruby color. Strong hints of blueberry and raspberry. Plenty of fruit.
