(Au Bon Climat Pinot Noir Cuvée V Los Alamos Vineyard) Medium cherry red color with pale meniscus; roses, rosehips, cranberry nose; tasty, silky textured, tart cranberry, mineral, rosehips palate with medium acidity; could use 2-3 years; medium-plus finish (for Japanese market, where there is reported preference for wines on the "fruity side") 90+ points

Deep strawberry and raspberries with earthy notes and a nice balance of acidity. Concentrated flavor but elegant touch/mouthfeel. Lots of florals as it warmed. Handles food really well.

Au Bon Climat Tasting (Au Bon Climat Tasting Room): A hint of earthiness on the palate with some nice ripe dark fruits. Serious acidity with strawberry notes and just a hint of tannin on the finish.
