  April 9, 2020 - Whoa. Where to start? I will be writing much more about Bon Pari in the coming couple of weeks, but if this wine is any indication, I better buckle up. The nose is oddly a bit shy with just a bit of red berry fruit popping through even after the bottle had been open for some time. I wrote "oddly" because the palate is anything but shy. Rich red berry fruit with wave after wave of rather intense flavor. This is not, however, a Pinot bomb, but rather a wine that is crafted in a more restrained "Burgundian" fashion while celebrating its Californian roots. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect is that this wine is seven years old, but could easily be mistaken for a new release. Holy cow this is Outstanding. Maybe more. thedrunkencyclist.com

  March 2, 2020 - This was an excellent bottle of wine. Reminded me of other Sonoma Coast pinots including Williams Selyem and Kosta Browne. Almost weightless which is the style I prefer rather than thick and/or heavy. Tannin is well integrated and balance is spot on.
