Dang this is good. After a palate numbing number of Pinots, this 2016 managed to stand out. Just slightly edging out the 2018 Tantara Bentrock for my favorite Pinot of the night.

Raspberry, cola, and forest floor on the nose gives way to a zippy yet balanced mix of sour cherry, nectarine, strawberry, and cedar. Decant for an hour or so and enjoy with a cheese board.

Perfect balance of fruit and tannins. a bit lite on the nose, medium color, and a long finish.

Mix of light and dark red fruit with some spice, some light wood and a good amount of acid. Very well-made and very enjoyable.

Dark fruit and cherries on the front, tart bot not too, smooth mid palate with spices, cinnamon and nutmeg, earthy finish, mild tobacco and leather.
As far as California pinots go, this is about as good as it gets. Well structured, complex, smooth, lingering, leaves you wanting more.
