Quite a reasonable QPR wine at our acquisition cost. A lovely and now mature Anderson Valley pinot which has really softened, rounded out and integrated. Decanted for 2 hours+ and it really benefited from that. Clearly a CA pinot, not burgundian in style at all but now much softer and better balanced then the previous bottles. Very dark purple, long aftertaste, nose of dark fruit / brambles and primary flavors of dark cherry, anise and tobacco. Just beautiful with a 2-hour decant. Definitely recommend this wine.

Nice Pinot nose on PNP. Earth elements, strawberries, and rhubarb. Pretty lively and full for a cool climate Anderson offering. Light and silky tannin. A nice quaffer. Procured on sale at $36 .

Very aromatic (also double decanted four hours ago), caramelized strawberry, chocolate cherry, a tasty, savory profile of strong fruit. Big CA style in the fruit.
