  February 14, 2017 - Cherries, strawberries, red berries, and cedar wood on the nose. Good acidity with more red berries on the palate. Good finish.

  February 8, 2016 - Drank with John and Jeanne. Very aromatic wine with all sorts of red fruit on the nose. Bigger than I expected on the palate, where it was again all abut red fruit. Acid was good, but I guess I was anticipating that the wine would have more in the way of non-fruit elements. Still, very good.

  September 12, 2015 - Wonderful wine. Very aromatic, cherry, orange rind, spices on the nose. Medium body, smooth texture and long aftertaste. Not over the top and beautifully balanced. One of the best Californian Pinots I had in a while. Wish I had more of this...

  March 16, 2012 - Big california pinot with typical cherry and red fruit on the nose. Hints of meat. Obviously unfilterd and unfined. Palate to match the nose. A bit of a drop in the midpalate, but not overlly distracting. Drinking well now. PDQ92

  May 16, 2011 - Not as varietally pure as the Hirsch version of this Pinot. Still excellent. Big and rich on the nose, smooth across the palate. A little bit of tart cherry, with even some dark, ashy flavors.
