Decanted, but not left open for very long. Tasted at same time as Westside Road Neighbors C: Lovely luminous medium ruby S: Fruit, grass, wood, carmel, red cherry S2: Wood, alcohol heat, red cherry T: Medium acidity, no RS, a little thin, tannic/cherry up front, leather, medium body, fruit forward but a little "watery", cherry, subtle hint of smokiness/leather, tannins. Compared to Westside: Fatter/"slimier" on the boddy (less astringent, maybe lower acidity), more fruity. (1 disagreement that Sonoma has more body), flavor might be thinner, more smoke/leather component that we like. R: Compared to Westside Neighbors: THIS one (one of us)) Fine (1), buy again-minus(1)

Pronounced red fruit aromas of strawberry, cherry and raspberry. Light red in the glass. Medium in body, light tannins and medium acid. Similar flavor profile to the nose with a medium finish. Good all around Pinot Noir.

Fruit forward, berries on the nose and pallette. This is just starting to open up and could use more time, but already lovely.

Disappointing for the price. High acid but lacking ripeness and punch. Drank as a pop and pour so likely needs time and air to fatten up.
