March 19, 2011 - Saturday Evening Wines (Washington, DC): If tasted blindly, I wouldn't have pegged this for a Bien Nacido pinot noir. Awesome, spicy, nose of sour cherries, radishes, and peppered cranberries. The palate started off a bit thin and acidic, but with air it's complexity increased. Very nice minerality on the palate with subtle red fruits, pepper, violets, and dried roses. Took a bit to come around for me, but I really enjoyed what the wine morphed into.
