Still pretty dark and dense - likely even a point or so higher in another year or three, but pretty darn tasty now. Good example of the darker, more savory side of Cali pinot.

Limited table side notes. Absolutely outstanding. Rich and elegant with wonderful components of rose, white flowers, and cherries. Very elegant and enjoyed by everyone at the table. Wonderful to drink now. In the zone for the next three to four years of optimal richness and drinking, but can clearly go beyond that. Cellared since release. Wish I had a half case to further enjoy.
(Taken to Valette, in Healdsburg, and served with Day Boat Scallops en Crout and Coriander Crusted Duck Breast.)

Not outstanding right now. Lots of aromatic interest but in a muddy, awkward place. Better a couple years ago, likely better in a couple years.
