  Almost opaque deep cherry color, fruit on nose and perhaps a hint of cola, medium body, balanced acidity, hint of cinnamon on the palate and finish

  My magnum drank over 2 days: Delicious nose of ripe cherry, some briar raspberry, a touch of licorice and root beer. Mouthfilling and smooth, the baked red fruit and sassafras flavors mix well to a great long finish that's perfect. Every sip over 2 days was delicious and compelling. Should be this great for another 2 years I think but perfect now.

  Damn this is good. Tonight, the wine revealed itself similarly to the previous recent descriptions. Absolutely delightful. I am very partial to the extra richness of Russian River Valley pinots with respect to California pinots. Alluring aroma. Medium to full rich, smooth, delightful, ripe. Can't take off as much for the ripeness as other reviewers. Older Allens are special wines.

  {Bought on release, perfect fill, PopNPour} Intensely ripe red cherry fruits, sweet without sugar from ripeness, complex aromatics and palate reflects the nose. Good length and finish. This bottle has held up well - too ripe a style for me personally but beautifully made wine that convincingly demonstrates how good W-S wines can be.

  Hung in there well from the famous Allen vineyard of Rochioli.
