Pali Wine Company Rancho Vina Vineyard. Aged 15 months in 50% new oak. Just feels like a PN day.
Pale ruby (touch darker)in color. Floral, approachable nose. Black plum, black cherry, cranberries, baking spices, vanilla. Nice background of acidity. Drink in the next 4/5 years. Decant for 30 minutes. Edit- The acidity subsides after an hour. The fruit moves forward on the palate. Very nice.
This label has taking it up a notch. Top to bottom, wines are quite good.

HDV Ysabel Pinot Noir. (Shut down tonight) This is still rather tight. I would cellar this for a few years. If you open a bottle, decant for a bit. I have a problem… enjoy my Pinots/Chardonnays as a pop & pour🤫Dark plum, cinnamon, bursting in tea. Acid & fruit are still towards the front of the palate. No where near a pop & pour. Thinking it’s going to be sensational ...as it was a few years ago. — 12 days ago
