Really good from Paul Hobbs, Katherine Lindsay estate. Age now nine years and this is the sweet spot. Enveloping mouth feel, velvet, smooth with tannins well integrated. Raspberry and blueberry, stewed prunes, and rose petal flavor profile, Low residue and delicate nature, no heat on backend of palate. So good, wish I had more.

Part of a New World Pinot Noir tasting with my wine group. Out of the 4 Pinots, this came in last. It is not a bad wine, but for the price, it was a disappointment. Lots of oak, and some of my group felt in a blind tasting, they would not have been able to identify it as a Pinot. This was the most expensive wine of the tasting.

Similar to my notes back in April. i opened and let slow ox for about two and a half hours then slowly drank over the next three. Red fruit on the nose. The palate was cherry, plum and hints of strawberry and spice. The finish was on the long side. It accompanied a platter of leftovers as I try to empty out the fridge before Fathers Day.

Deep dark. Nose of tobacco, dark fruit, leather - earth. Luscious. Paired with garlic pork roast. Enjoy now and will likely continue to develop in 3-5-ish years.
