May 10, 2013 - Quintessential California Pinot Noir. Loads of and layers of red, blue, and black fruits such as raspberry, blueberry, plum jam. Elegant, yet powerful as it is a Cali Pinot after all.

October 5, 2008 - It was good, but not everything I had been expecting. Wouldn't buy again for the price.

October 27, 2007 - Oaky nose of cherry cola and strawberries - definitely recognizable as a SRH pinot noir. On the palate, it has an unusually full body - not quite like a Sea Smoke, but more than a typical pinot this young - beautiful cola, root beer, dark cherry, plum, and a cherry pits (like cherry, only bitter), with a rather long finish. I'm impressed, as it exceeded my expectations.
