June 26, 2010 - Medium full nose has a nice blend of rich Cali fruit and earth / funk. Medium-rich on the palate with cola, black cherry and cola. Intense fruit across the mid-palate. Juicy acidity. Well balanced into a medium finish.
August 19, 2009 - Good fruit flavor well balanced.
May 2, 2009 - A more medium bodied pinot, the sweet cherry fruit on the attack had a sweet and sour (or tangy) thing going on kind of like a cherry sour patch kid. The finish had a woody component that was somewhat bitter and completely separate from the attack. Overall, a good but not great pinot.
April 14, 2009 - Light red/pinkish. Spicy, light candied red fruit nose. Very rich, almost extracted-bright red fruit, sweet candied finsh. Flavorful, all about bright red fruit
March 31, 2009 - Concentrated with heat.
April 20, 2008 - Has become complex with balanced strawberry-cinnamon flavors and good length.
March 26, 2008 - A delightful California Pinot. Well-balanced.
June 30, 2007 - Slightly earthy nose. Nice red and black cherry fruit. Nicely balanced with good acidity. Drinking really well. Normally I prefer Burgundy to California Pinot but this was really nice.
June 26, 2007 - Very good Pinot. Needed about 45 minutes to really start to show itself. Cherry, herbs, incense smoke. Nice acidity.
June 17, 2007 - typical cali pinot...not special
