Nothing too offensive or spectacular. Easy drinking but don’t think about it too much. — 7 years ago

Raspberry and a spicy note on the nose. Light body. Bright cherry fruit melting into vanilla due to the oak I’m sure it’s seen. Good Cali Pinot for a decent price. I had it with a steak and it mellowed the spice and brought forth the smooth vanilla and fresh plum notes. — 7 years ago

2014 review
Nose: a few green notes (bell pepper, slightly grassy) and some midrange purple fruit (blackberry predominant)
Pallete: lighter in body than the nose led me to believe. Decent acidity. The front is a little flat but opens up to nice currant notes.

7.6

Funk fest. The nose reminds me of day old BBQ chicken. The fruit remains hidden. It’s highly acidic and a touch too tannic. Maybe it needed a little more time in bottle but I can’t imagine it was made to age. — 7 years ago

Agree with previous poster that this has a strong oyster shell aroma on the nose. 2016 is zippy, strong acid in the mid pallet but it doesn’t last. Would be great with a seafood tower. — 7 years ago
