Tasted double blind I guessed Sonoma pinot, but only because it didn't seem like anything else- not that it was particularly pinot-y. My wife described it as French bistro carafe wine. Yup.

Don't know much about this wine but not nearly as good as the Zepaltas-labeled pinots. Much more four-square with no subtlety and little elegance. Has some cinammon flavors, a little fruit, and though it saw just 15% new oak, overt oak.

Cellar clean-up. We had this a year back or so and it drank much better with some bottle age.

Warm pinot fruit with some barrel spice and a little cherry cola.

This is quite tasty. Nice tart, red fruit, clean and pure. It has a relaxed swallow showing the red fruit, dusty mineral, and some spice.
