Community Tasting Notes 3

    October 9, 2011 - Aromas of dried fruit and earth, this aged Pinot surprised as the typical Pinot fresh fruit flavors had disappeared. The tannis were present but mellow. Drink now. A true steal at $14.67/bottle.

    July 12, 2009 - Tightly wound, bright, crisp Pinot. Notes of cranberry, baking spices & minerals on the palate.

    The aromatics were closed down on the 1st day, and only opened up a couple of hours on the 2nd night after the bottle spent the night in the fridge. I would recommend holding onto this for another 1-3 years, this has the stuffing to age, with plenty of acidity.

    May 16, 2007 - There is a lively charm to this bright and racy Pinot Noir that seems lost amongst the throng of high alcohol fruit bomb wines that are ever so popular these days. Everything about this wine was bright and refreshing. Gorgeous ruby lipstick in color accessorized a charming perfume of wild strawberry and baking spices. Ripe fruit on the palate appears slightly darker in the form of black cherry notes and is rounded with silky tannins and white pepper spice encompassed by a buzzing acidity. The wine finishes deep and dry with a hint of smoke and mineral.
