  Awesome fruit forward example o RRV Pinot. Intense bouquet of strawberry and mushroom. Bright cherry and cola flavors with a nice finish. Nicely balanced with good acidity. A perfect food wine. Wish I had a lot more of this as it's just starting to taste perfect.

  A pinot for syrah drinkers. Nose of cola, cherry and graham cracker. Palate has plenty of black pepper, cherry and mild spice. Silky full mouthfeel. More body than most pinots. A really delicious wine that likely can age several more years.

  Excellent, fruit-forward example of a Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. This wine can handle a few more years.

  Lightly-spiced (baking spices) creosote cherries.

  Craig and Nita's Holiday Party (Champagne and Pinot Noir): The nose gives red fruit and stems and smells underripe. Unpleasant. The taste is a little better with nice fruit but compact and flat on the palate. Adds a little acidic zing on the finish. Only OK.
