My first taste of Occidental (any cuvee) and this is totally worthy of the Kistler name/legacy. Great fruit but supported by acid and alcohol to keep in balance. Long finish, just great in the mouth. Get more of this stuff.

Amazing floral nose, smooth palette throughout with an ending spice/clove on the finish.
Surprisingly dark and brooding. One of the finest California Pinots I have touched.

Beautiful dark garnet color. Delicious, rich and nuanced. Great depth of flavor loaded with red fruit notes. This one is in a good place right now.
