    July 16, 2017 - Great wine from a warm location between RRV and Dry Creek. Red fruit primary with some secondary flavors building, balanced, touch of spice, nice finish. No need to rush remaning bottles.

    March 24, 2014 - - Purple color with medium forming legs and aromas of raspberry. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of raspberry with a light/medium body. Narrow texture with a medium finish - Nice and dry

    January 10, 2014 - Tasted blind. Nose is very expressive and speaks of the Russian River with ripe pinot notes, soy, smoke, cranberry and a slight honey note. Good acid in the mouth, broad texture and fleshy tannins. Slight sour cherry linger in the finish. Overall a nice Pinot with oak in context. Nice

    December 25, 2013 - S: earthy, truffles, lots of forest notes T: woody, cedar, brawny. Some dark cherry, cranberry on the mid. This is a pinot that's on the earthy side instead of fruity.

    November 16, 2013 - An 89+ score jacked up to a ninety because I like the cherry/strawberry flavor profile and the fact that it is not too extracted. Root elements lend complexity. A nice one.
