  Fruit forward with high oak spice. Nice wine, but I prefer minerality and freshness to fruit and spice.

  Rich, sweet, delicious strawberry fruit with forest floor flavors, excellent structure, ample finish, very good pinot but a little expensive

  Really nice. Dark, lustrous appearance. Black cherry nose and mouth are enticing, intoxicating. Very deep, rich and substantial. Excellent body and balance. This is gorgeous. 5-13-17-8: 93/100.

  Big full fruit to the nose even though its Anderson Valley.
  
  Apparently there is a dialect that is only spoken in Anderson valley. Crazy. And two of those speakers who were sisters bought some velvet. And hence this name.
  
  That, and its supposed to be round and supple on the palate. Which it is, with a brisk note of Anderson Valley fruit. At $75 its over but hey, if they can sell it.

  Textured, grippy, dark red fruit, quite savory on the finish. Very nice. $70.
