This blend is drinking amazing now. Nose of red current, red berries, light mint and integrated sweet oaky notes.
Tastes like red fruits and mineral, oaky notes that glide on the pallet for a supper smooth and balanced finish.
Tannins fully integrated now. Probably great for 2 more years but 2024 and 2025 is best

2020 Derby Wine Estates Pinot Noir Derbyshire Vineyard

San Luis Obispo County more

11/13/2023 - Mike Kopanski wrote: 92 points

Before I even knew the origin of this really nice Pinot, my nose and first sip told me it was a cold climate red wine. It is perfectly ripe and has great color, so we surmise the grapes got a lot of sunshine. It is deep and rich while being almost as lush as a Pinot can be, yet still has an aura of delicacy. It’s full and complete from nose to finish. Totally integrated, but should easily age for years, as the acids and tannins are still sharp and rustic.

Drinks with remarkable complexity and balance. Its medium weight but punches thru with bold and smooth flavors of spicy red berry and dark fruit too.

Cork was funky! We had a hard time getting the cork out, it disintegrated into pieces. It was light, fruity and good to sip while cooming

Paso Robles Red Blend more

12/24/2023 - VenturePlanet Likes this wine: 92 points

This is the Derby Wine Estates Maneater, v.2016, bought at the tasting room. Great stuff…especially with regard to the tail. It’s a smooth ride, from nose to palate to finish. I’m not a fan of pure Zin, so the Petite Sirah adds this a pleasant depth while also giving it the light fruit infusion to make this very accessible. Full bodied, also in the mouth, medium acidity. Perfect window to enjoy, imho.

The petite sirah (only 27%) is really singing in this zin blend. Very chocholaty and dark barky black fruits with a hint of boysenberry. Very satisfying long finish.

This was a weird bird, funk from the mouv was overly present start to finish.
Hard to get past it as this has aged. Still went well with food.
Drink now.

Fruit forward and still rather tannic, with lots of plum, black cherry, and raspberry. Moderate oak impact (especially compared to lots of California wines). Food pairing (or decanting) is recommended to tone down the tannins. A good Petite Sirah at a reasonable price.

Paired very nicely with my wife’s veggie lasagna. Dry, full-bodied, little bite on the front-end, smooth on the finish. A bold but gracious wine.

Paso Robles more

9/17/2023 - dino_mike Likes this wine: 94 points

very inky purple color and smoky mineral nose. Lot more mineral-berry flavors and a crunchy-velvety tannin mouth feel that is still balanced.

Purple berry, blue berry and dark earthy berry emerge but it never becomes a fruit bomb, the mineral flinty dark fruit stays with it.

Drinks great now, will hold for another 2 years but I wouldn't wait

Paso Robles more

5/22/2023 - dino_mike Likes this wine: 90 points

Superb graciano. Tons of spice, cinnamon and strawberry in the nose and mouth. Rich, full bodied and a very good long finish. It has a bit of Chinese five spice or a floral cardamom-lavender in the nose and a bit in the mid pallet that I've never had before in any other graciano. Drinks excellent now and can improve for another 1-2 years.

This wine drinks VERY bright, with a sharp, red fruit tartness at mid-pallet. It's from Lauras Vineyard which is east of 101 so is a warmer vineyard, but its a fairly rich cabernet that still seems under ripe in parts. Does drink as a much younger wine though. Its too early to drink in 2023, I would not taste again until 2025 and hope that middle tartness expands into something that does not mare the finish and make this a generally decent wine.

Drank with several friends and we all agreed the wine was definitely past its prime. The fruit fell out entirely, acidity was intact but there was very little reason to find ourselves drinking it when we had other bottles around.
