    May 27, 2013 - Second bottle better than the first (a few years later), but still harsher than you would like

    November 29, 2009 - Good pepper flavor and fairly soft tannins, but not worthy of the high price tag.

    November 8, 2009 - Not up to many other sinskey's I have had. okay, but on the harsh side.

    July 11, 2009 - Napa Valley, July 2009; 7/9/2009-7/11/2009 (Napa Valley, CA): This wine has a fun nose with raspberries wrapped up around little hints of mint and rhubarb. The wine is clean and enjoyable right from the start with the raspberries and rhubarb coming into play quickly. The acidity is nice as well, and it leaves a mellow tangy sensation right down the middle of the palate as it leads into a shorter finish.

    July 11, 2009 - My first trip to Napa, Ca.; 7/9/2009-7/11/2009: Red berry fruit with that bit of funk you expect from good pinot on the nose. Bright red berries and cherry fruit early on with some medium-strength acidity taking over in the mid-palate that balances nicely with the lingering fruit and spice notes. A very good Cali pinot with no outstanding flaws.
