  Same as previous bottle. Superb for the price of $35. At a great age to start drinking it.

  A bit more balance than the last bottle. Alight Pinot that goes down easy

  Ruby in color with a wide reddish/brick rim.
  
  Pretty nose of black currants, black cherries, raspberries, spices, light earth, light oak, wild flowers, tobacco leaf and black pepper.
  
  Medium bodied and elegant with medium acidity.
  
  Dry on the palate with cherries, sweet raspberries, earth, light oak, spices, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates and black pepper.
  
  Long finish with very little tannins and sour cranberries.
  
  This 12 year old Pinot Noir from Napa Valley is delicious now. Showing nice complexity with a soft mouthfeel.
  
  Actually, it feels more like a Burgundy Pinot Noir. Interesting stuff.
  
  Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle. Nicely balanced and good by itself.
  
  This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is peaking now. A great sipping wine.
  
  I had the 2014 a year ago, and this is even better. Delicious wine.
  
  100% Pinot Noir grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 18 months. Unfiltered and unfined.
  
  13.4% alcohol by volume.
  
  92 points.
  
  $210. ($65 current vintage).

  Mature, ready to go, but still has a life ahead of it. Powerful wine. Pours dark garnet, some bricking on the edges. Aromas of black berries and cherries, spice box, fermented tobacco, oak and pine needles. Mouth is full bodied, med + acid, med tannin, earthy finish, a little booze heat in the mouth.
