Traditional nose. Plum-cherry-spice flavors fading but hold on in an understated core. It doesn't offer as much as it once did, but it remains smooth and drinkable.

Popped and poured. Medium garnet color. Medium+ intensity nose out of the gate with notes of black cherry, roasted plum, a bit of clove/baking spice, orange peel and perhaps a hint of dried wood in the background. Similar flavors on the palate with ripe and juicy fruit with orange peel and some well integrated oak notes. Medium+ acid, medium tannin. Smooth mouthfeel and finish. Delicious, well made bottle of Sonoma pinot.

Good red fruit on the nose, raspberries and even some plum. Medium weight with decent balance. Tasted over a period of two days and the under layers of earthiness and mushrooms opened up on the second day. Not a candidate for long term ageing but a couple of years will help.
