Rich, ruby color. Cherry at first, but then leans more to black raspberry and darker fruit. A little acidity mid-palate to balance a touch of sweetness. Long earthy finish. For my palate, a good example of a bold CA Pinot.

Deep, slightly translucent ruby color. Nose is sweet spices, strawberry and other red fruit and oaky creaminess. Palate seems to show some residual sugar lots of sweet spice and red fruit. Very fruit forward. Served with my chipotle burgers and paired nicely given the spice which seemed to be balanced by the RS.

An excellent pinot - notes of raspberry and cherry, a bit of spice with soft tannins. Very well balanced and great finish. Paired really well with grilled salmon with cucumber dill sauce.

Light clear ruby color. Aromas of plum, blackberry and hint of earth. Medium bodied with very smooth tannins that are well balanced with low acidity. Flavors of herbs, black currant, cherries and earth. Very long finish. Ready now but will age 5 more years. 1 hour decanting worked well.

Medium-deep ruby. Clear. A hot bitterness on nose masks some light red berries, vanilla, and spice.
