Drinking surprisingly well ! Wonderful aroma and flavors of blackberry and cherry, somewhat full-bodied and lush. Great balance with a trace of astringency melding nicely with the richness. I don't see this getting any better, but neither would I be in a rush if I had any remaining bottles.

Consistent crimson color to the rim, and a bit cloudy in appearance. The nose shows aromas of black cherry and blackberry, with black cherry, plum, and a light sandalwood note on the palate. Nice weight and finish.

Still drinking well especially out of the magnum we had. Definitely not a lightweight Pinot but it seems as if winemaker Ed was able to tame the robust SLH AVA fruit. Bold but still packing enough acidity to pair well with smoked pork sliders tonigh.

Rich, dark purple hue, aroma of cinnamon and violets, full-bodied with some tannin in the finish.
