Pleasantly surprised by this. Drinking really well now

Drinking great now but lots of tannin and life left here. Could still sit for 5-8 years

Fantastic. Really peaking now

Very nice and well balanced but not quite my style. Could wait a few more years and be even better

Good wine but a bit too sweet for my taste.

Still a big wine. Good drinking now but could also use a year or two, if that is your style

Lots of ripe red fruit and chocolate. Very nice.

Deep, powerful wine but not a ton of complexity. Is ok now but could use 2-3 more years of aging time.

Great dark fruit and tannins to balance. Drinking great now but could still be good for several more years.

Not much depth but lots of fruit and some nice tannin. Very Lodi (and I mean that as a compliment)

Fantastic. Deep and rich but also lots of dark berries.

WOW. This is a fantastic Pinot. Full bodied yet fruit forward and smooth. Great, long finish. I am immediately going back to my wine shop to pick up more.

Easy drinking and smooth but not a whole lot of depth

Decent but could find better bottles at this price point.

Fantastic! Dark red berries with just a bit of pepper.

Opened up nicely after 2 hours of decanting. Really nice and deep.

Good value for the price. I was impressed by the depth

Solid but unspectacular. Pretty straightforward wine

Not a great wine, but drinkable enough. About average for this price point.

Excellent, fruit-forward wine. Well balanced and easy to drink. Lovely.

Great nose. Powerful dark fruit and oak up front. Finishes quickly, otherwise this would have been a fantastic wine.

9/8/2012 - homerfan33 Likes this wine:

Wonderfully smooth wine, with nice depth. Great value at this price point.

Wow. Fantastic wine, and I don't even like pinots that much. Chocolate, nice pepper and fruit. Really lovely.

Softer wine, with light fruit and some nice pepper. Opened up nicely after about an hour in decanter.

8/29/2012 - homerfan33 Likes this wine:

Popped and poured. Still lots of tannin, so I should have decanted for a bit. Regardless, a nice wine.

Fantastic. Could use another year or so.

Disappointed by this. Balanced but not a whole lot to this wine. Very straightforward.

Will be even better in a year.

Decanted for 1 hour. Has potential but needs a couple more years before it's ready.

6/22/2012 - homerfan33 Likes this wine:

Decanted for 2 hours. Really lovely and smooth; easy drinking. Don't think it needs more time, necessarily, but will be a little better in a year or two.

Tons of vanilla and not much else. Sampled from 3 different bottles - same across all 3.
