Perhaps a bit young Still . A 15 minute decant helped and it evolved nicely over an hour.

Great quality! Great wine! Enjoyed the great Bolognese at Modo Mio and a quick decant, although probably not necessary.Cinnamon and a variety of blue and other dark fruit. Not getting better than this .This is why I love Cade.

Not up to the Hall standards . Maybe a flawed bottle. Tannic .

Nicely balanced. Ruby color ,mostly blue with a hint of red fruit and a nice finish.. There is light sediment in the bottle. Tastes like blackberry and raspberry. Medium body.

Great Pinot ! Nice balance of fruit and acidity. Easy drinking with a nice touch of dark red concentrated fruit and a relatively full body.
Really enjoyed this Calera.

Nice compliment to our Wagyu Strip steak at the Summit. Blueberry, blackberry with a hint of chocolate. Crisp , smooth and well balanced. Dont think this will improve with more age. Drink Up!

Drinking nicely at this time but I think it will improve over next 3 years. Drank too quickly for additional fruit and complexity to show.
Great wine dinner at Cipriani.

What an amazingly complex Pinot. Blue ,Red fruits a bit of minerality. Very expensive though. May be the best PN I have ever tasted.

1.5 Liter on Christmas Eve. Typical quality from the First Lady of Wine.
Wonderful dark fruit with a great Bordeaux style and very smooth and complex. Wish I had more of the 08. This is one of Heidi's best labels and I can't resist getting some of the 2016. Outstanding!

Very nice, crisp and light . A bit of honeydew and citrus finishing very clean.
I would agree that it needs to sit for about 15 minutes to bring out the diversification aspects.

Decanted 2 hours . A little underwhelming for the price and quality. I expected alot more. It is pretty one-dimensional.
