March 23, 2018 - Love this wine. It’s drinking beautifully now. Redolent red and black fruits on the nose lead to a silky texture on the palate and long finish. Lots of spice and dark chocolate wrap around you. Layers here. I’m thinking that if a Cali Pinot is a pretty beautiful woman, this is a handsome muscular male model with style. (In wine I must be bisexual! :-)) Tannins are very fine but still chewy. This wine is gorgeously balanced.
