Amazing nose, cardamom and allspice offset with forest floor, red fruit singing on the palate, long finish, and it all hangs together as an integral experience, one of those wines that makes up for the many disappointments. Memorable like the first time you taste Chambertin.

An exceptional pinot with a very muted nose but containing dark fruit, oak and firm tannins on the palate with a lengthly old world finsh. This wine still has a few years to go.

I loved this wine and my wife raved about it - served with grilled cajun rubbed grouper. Opened bottle (but did not decant) 1 hour before dinner. Cola / black cherry / cherry / all-spice on nose. On palate, very silky mouthfeel with similar flavor profile to palate plus floral and cherry pie elements with airtime. Medium+ body and long finish. Excellent with the grilled fish. My best domestic Pinot of the year. Need to buy more. 93+
