Very classic ca pinot. Light and full of berries but with a really rich developed nose.

PnP. Ruby color. Med/Slow legs. Fruity nose of Raspberry, Strawberry and Cherry. Tastes of Baked Cherry, Strawberry and Cassis. Smooth texture. Ok balance. Med/Short finish. 14.1% ABV.

Bing cherry appearance. Discreet, peppery nose of black and red fruit, lavender, thyme, and Band-Aid, gaining aromas of baking spices, vanilla, and cedar in the glass. The palate was more fruit forward than the nose, exhibiting firm tannins, good length, and tart notes of cherries and raspberries, orange pith on the mid-palate, and a minerally finish that picks up cinnamon spice. Still youthful but gained vibrancy and focus the longer it sat. Give it some air to allow all of its components to integrate.

Very fruit friendly, high acid, but good balance of fruit and body.

Very food friendly. Vanilla, black cherry, hint of cinnamon. Mild tartness. Good value for California Pinot.
