  My kind of pinot — concentrated; delicious dark cherry, not lush or in-your-face though. Almost northern Rhone minerally/syrah-like. Unique and wonderful.

  Floral and spiced with ripe black cherry start-to-finish. On the rich and fleshy side, yet also easily balanced, with a long and nearly bright finish. Good+ now.

  Dark crimson in color. 14.1% ABV. Gorgeous nose of dark fruits, cloves, cherry cola and forest floor. Medium to full bodied with perfect acidity. Dark and brooding. Black cherry, baking spices, earth and minerals on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. My favorite wines in the RM Pinot Noir lineup lean a little more red fruited that this Silver Eagle but it is still hard to resist what is in the bottle. Best over the next 2-4 years.

  The last time I enjoyed this wine was in Joliet Illinois while watching a Cubs game. And at that point in time, noone cared who anybody was. Which is the point of wine. Share wine with those you love! This wine was enjoyed with an herb salmon and was a beautiful pairing. Rounded black cherry and black pepper spice. All the subtle nuances of this beautiful Pinot with 7 years of age was a beautifully balanced wine with a great obtunded character and youthful fruit profile that seemed like it could hold another 10 years. This is my last one of these, I'm very sorry to say so. Really wish I could find another half dozen as this one will hold beautifully.
