    January 14, 2017 - Light color, but great concentration of orange peel, spice, stems, and rustic cherry fruit tacked to the palate by fine gritty tannins, just delicious.

    December 31, 2016 - Koolade colored, intense strawberry cherry fruit, meshed very well with a variety of foods at Christmas. Really light, pure, but intense stuff, very Cali but doesn't suffer from overt ripeness or alcohol.

    March 10, 2016 - This is amazing Pinot Noir. It's still youthful and vibrant. Strawberries, cherries and floral notes, spice, hints of tobacco, clove, mint and herbal tea. Tannins are well balanced the wine is silky smooth.

    October 23, 2015 - A very pretty wine of carnelian-red with an almost wispy look of dustiness. Nose of tart cranberries and just a bit of creme brulee. Nose alone shows elegance and class. Palate reveals what I will describe as the perfectly matured Russian River Pinot; it's perfectly balanced layerers of purity, sensuality and presence and within a perfectly packager framework of glorious fruits of quiet strawberries and warm tart cranberry pie. Interesting soft rose petals too! There is nothing popping out as a 'spot me?' quality. Acidity perfectly delineated and tannins perfectly resolved. A delicate wine that if one swirls too vigorously one will sense some reduction notes, so I won't. After a dozen minutes this starts exploding upward from the glass and now is super fragrant. This wine right now does demand/deserve the perfect serving temperature, somewhere right at 63-65 is downright necessary. I did say it's a delicate flower and needs to be treated like one. Long and graceful finish all reminiscent of what came before. This is one to savor, not rush through.
