Drank over 2 days. Simple, competently made, Pinot that is just fine. Expected more but this was a Garagiste deal so glad I didn't pay more than $20

Good, but not as enjoyable as the straight RRV bottling from the same year.

Drinking colder does keep the oak at bay somewhat. Good acidity with citrus and tropical fruit notes. Many decades ago, I was a fan of this Cali Chard style, but not for a long time now. Still, it's drinkable, especially with food.

Italian Whites mostly (Prima, Walnut Creek, Ca.): Nice fruit, very ripe fruit on the nose, palate, and finish.

From 75cl, closure not seen, at Sonoma Pizza, Forestville. Insipid, low acid, dilute, boiled-sweet flavoured juice with no pinot aroma I can identify and a cloying sugary aftertaste. Basic entry-level quaffing wine. $52 restaurant price is obscene. 83-84P

Butter bomb but with an acid backing. Holds up alright for 6 years on. I like this kind of thing about once a year to remind me what heavy malo tastes like.

Stunningly good for its price. Slightly sweeter than I usually prefer. But this wine hits on fore palate, mid palate and back palate.

Gobs of fruit balanced with enough acidity to make it work. Not at all restrained, but it's delicious in the CA vein.

In agreement with the other notes. This is a fantastic, fresh bottle of Pinot. Might be a 92. Great value at whatever garagiste sold it to me for (I think $29+ as Jon writes).

The Sixth Annual World's Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine (Houston, Texas): Retail $55. Carbonic fermentation, Charmat method. 100% Pinot Noir. Dark. This is obviously the sparkling Pinot. Cranberry a go-go on the nose. Fruity and fun, this is a great Turkey wine. Fantastic. Excellent. 91 Points.

The Sixth Annual World's Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine (Houston, Texas): Retail $70. 100% Chardonnay. II. La Bionda Blanc des Blancs. Golly, another fantastic nose. A bit ripe and sweet, sure, but there is a yeasty component. Yum. Tart and fruity on the palate, perhaps a bit sweet, but fantastic. Excellent. 91 Points.

My first so called “orange “ wine, I liked it, a lot.
Compellingly funk on the finish kept me sipping thru the whole bottle.
Not overdone or overworked, balanced.
Re buy.
And drink.

Retail $40. Responsible bottle. Under cork. I first tasted this wine for the Seventh Annual World's Largest Tasting of American True Rosé and I loved it then (93 Points). Somehow, I ended up with another two bottles (lucky me!) so I popped this one with my lovely wife out of town (who says chivalry is dead?). Similar notes to the previous, but this one is also coming off as just ever-so-slightly-and-barely-perceptibly sweet. But it is so good, I really could not care any less. Outstanding.

The Sixth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir (Houston, Texas): Retail $57. Medium to dark in color with a lovely nose of dark fruit and a bit of spice. The palate is fruity and super tangy with plenty of verve. Whoa. Outstanding. 96 Points.

The Sixth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir (Houston, Texas): Retail $40. Medium color but still translucent with dark fruit aromas and plenty of earth. Maybe even a touch “dirty”? Nice palate as well with that dark fruit abundant (but not bomby) and well-balanced. Not a bright, cheery Pinot, but this is darned good. Excellent. 91 Points.

I was quite impressed. What oak there is remains subtle. I would have guessed there was some stainless steel, but perhaps the low amount of new oak is enough to keep it under control. This is not an over-extracted cali pinot. It has the new world flavor profile, but the fruit is not over ripe. Not super complex but call me a fan. Would buy - and drink happily - again. Did benefit from some air so I recommend a 1 hr decant.

Great nose, but it seemed a bit tight. Hopefully some additional time may open it up a bit. An OK buy at $28 from Garagiste, but wouldn't be happy if I paid $60 from the winery.
