Consumed with noshes (bread, crackers, and a variety of hard cheeses).Did not let breathe, did not decant, opened and poured. 225 cases made; 14.7% alcohol; new world fruit bomb. You can smell the alcohol initially after opening bottle. Not a balanced wine, and a bit of a bitter aftertaste. Perfectly serviceable wine but for me; I prefer most Santa Rita Hills Pinots to this one.

Not bad. I got the bitter aftertaste at the beginning, but that blew off after a few minutes.

didn't take TN, recall being quite good, ample bodied, but had an off-putting minty-toothpaste note at the finish
