Some of the reviewers have been a bit harsh in their assessment. Medium-dark in color with reasonable fruit and spice from oak. I suspect that something's been added to bolster color, flavor and body — perhaps carignane? I have tasted other Pinots that cost more and deliver less. Better the 2nd day but still not convinced it's 100% Pinot Noir. Kind of reminds me of BV Napa Valley Burgundy from way back when, tho with less American oak.

Astringent. Unbalanced. Disappointing. Glad this was something someone brought to my home and that I didn't pay for it. Borders on undrinkable. If you're looking for something delicate or light or a good Piont keep moving. Good for cooking!

Rødlilla klar farge. Relativ lys farge, i alle fall i kanten. Lukt av kirsebær. Fruktig. Røde og litt sorte bær. Kirsebær dominerer. Litt tanniner som kjennes på innsiden av kinnene lenge etterpå. Velbalansert og god.

Oak, oak, and more oak. Not a very delicate Pinot noir. I've driven buy this vineyard dozens of times on trips to Napa and from the outside is stunning.
The wine is heavy mouth feel, smoky oak forward Pinot with medium grip and medium acid. This is a very neutral review. I didn't love it. I didn't hate it. Meh.

Definitely on the heavy side of Pinot with a bold, smokey presentation, but lively flavor. I find this a wonderful wine
