Rooty, red berry and sweet spice nose. Flavourful, ripe, and assertive palate; a promising beginning, but the presentation of acidity seems forced and excessive, leaving the finish awkward and angular. 3/5

Med (-) ruby. Med (+) macerated strawberries and raspberries. Dry, w/ soft red fruit, med acidity, tannins and med (+) alcohol (13.9%). Med bodied and juicy, with med to med (+) flavor intensity and length. Nicely balanced and quite drinkable. Drink now, not likely to improve with further aging.

California new releases: Medium ruby colored. A warm, inviting compote of cherries and raspberries on the nose, mixed with leather, rose petals, rhubarb and mint – delightful. The palate shows crisp acidity on a dusty, medium-bodied frame. Raspberry and tart cherry fruit, crunchy and vibrant, blending nicely with spicy, floral, tobacco and earth tones. This is refreshing from start to finish, accessible but shows a lot of depth and character. Aged 10 months in 30% new French oak.

Solid light bodied Pinot with typical cherry notes and a touch of earth. Enjoyed the heck out of it.
