January 9, 2021 - Last bottle; these have been pretty good over the years. Still a ruby to garnet in color and drinking well. Smells like black cherry, plum, smoke, black tea, iodine, orange peel, and a touch of floral. Medium (+) body, acid, and finish, with flavors of black cherry, plum, red apple skin, black tea, orange peel, lemon, and notable spiciness that lingers. Really solid with a miso glazed salmon tonight, and probably a few years left in the tank if you have any more. Nice job, Brandon. 👍

February 23, 2017 - Not the style of pinot I usually enjoy but still a nice bottle. Heavier on the fruit like I find most Cali pinots. But still enjoyable. Last bottle.

January 14, 2017 - Drinking beautifully. Different from my earlier bottles but better. Fully mature, a meaty/smoky note has really overtaken the nose, almost northern Rhone syrah-like. There's a bit of earth and blackberry as well. The palate features the blackberry up front along with black cherry but the meat/smoke/earth notes are all there on the midpalate/finish. Fully integrated medium acid/tannins. I'm not sure I would peg this as a pinot blind but boy is it enjoyable for my palate.

Coleman Nicole Wine Tasting with Brandon Miller, Episode #902, 8/9/2010 (link) 90+ points(Coleman Nicole Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast) COLOR-medium, vibrant; NOSE-this is more interesting to me; has a cola component that I like; less oak; but more minerality/crushed rock thing going on with the hint of saltiness; PALATE-a little lighter than the '08; for me, this is more interesting and complex for me; I really like this, but I'm a hair concerned that it may be a little light for average consumer; this reminds me of a better and heavier Gamay which I'm a huge fan of; I get a floral rose petal component that I like quite a bit; this is palate specific, but I'm really impressed with this effort; GV-90+
