very easy drinking and enjoyable on the evening we opened it. But just a heads-up. We did not finish the whole bottle. It had completely died by the next evening. Which is very unusual. We generally open up multiple bottles when we serve wine, and invariably have a bottle or two that was not finished. And even with Pinot's the wine is always fine the second day. But not with the 2014 Dutton Ranch. So, my suggestion is to drink it up the same day one opens the bottle.

Pop and pour. Easy-drinking California Pinot with high-toned fruit and not much in the lower palate. Not a fan of the style but others loved the fruitiness.

obscene amounts of oak that have yet to integrate. yet the fruit is plush and tending towardsof the black end of the spectrum without being jammy or overripe. Classic RRV PN, if you don't care about the style very much

Drinking really well right now and a great QPR. Easy drinker with pure fruit (more on red side of spectrum to me), and a hint of spice. Really like it
