March 30, 2018 - Light garnet with a clear rim. Dull cherry nose with a hint of green wood. A little cherry on spice is all that remains. But supported the halibut nicely. Last one of these, a good run.

September 14, 2013 - Smells of "sonoma" (reminds me of my visits!) Tastes of cooked fruits (fig/blueberry/strawberry)and definiteley the rhubarb (as mentioned earlier) and sweet tobacco, finishes with a hint of char or smoke. I like it, but heavier than most pinots. I would not consider this a delicate wine. Would LOVE with barbecued meats.

July 20, 2013 - Poured into decanter. Cork is black synthetic material. Wine is unfined, unfilter. Color was a darker brickish tone. Nose raspberry, dark cherry. Still get the rhubarb pie and spice on the palate. Good lasting finish. Great pinot to enjoy by itself. 5,13,15,6=89

June 8, 2013 - Popped and poured into decanter. Color is dark ruby. Nose has aromas of spice perhaps clove, raspberry, and dark cherry. Palate is medium with a delicate texture. Flavors of rhubarb pie and warm spice. Finish is balanced with a hint of lingering tartness. 5,13,15,6=89
