Pleasant strawberry nose. The palate has delicate strawberry and cranberry fruit. Soft tannins, good acidity and balance. Finishes moderately long with bright berry fruit. Very nice wine, but fading a bit. I'd drink up.

A perfectly pleasant pinot. Plush raspberry and cherry fruit. Soft tannins, decent acidity. Not a lot of complexity. Drink them up over the next year if you have any.

Color: light/medium-deep ruby core -> light ruby rim with maybe a hint of garnet. Very pretty nose of cherries, cranberries, rhubarb, beetroot and a touch of forest floor. Good, acidic palate showing beetroot and red fruit. Medium-long finish. Well made, lovely wine. Ready to drink now, I'd opt for drinking this over the near-term as I don't really think this will improve upon where it currently sits. 91-92.

This is pretty dark. Nose of sweet blackberries, cool black raspberries and a hint of sassafras and it's all so very fragrant. Palate shows a deftness of presence. Some wonderful red-black fruits and amazing bounce for. Intense and yet playful, this has some crush red cherries & bold black tea leaf. Tannins are nicely resolved and acidity decent. Finish holds all of that in check and longish. Might be a nod darker than I like to lean these day but I call it as I see it, and this one shows very nice indeed.

(Bedrock Rebecca's Pinot Noir) #1; COLOR-medium/dark; NOSE-great attack; I love the nose; really interesting flavored tobacco leaf; a little spiciness; beautiful strawberries; a little licorice component; PALATE-quite reserved that I like; a tremendous balance; I'm getting a dark fruit play with some lovely blueberries dancing on my palate; quite silky and expands on my palate quite nicely; this wine makes me think; I like this wine; it's really well done; extremely young; great balanced and elegant; getting an animal fat component (like a good stew) on the mid-palate that I like; I like the sour cherries on the finish; this is a very well made wine and quite complex; I like the spicy pepper on the third quarter transition to the finish; GV-92

Much more barnyard than typical CA-really nice change.
