Falcon's Perch Monterey County Pinot Noir 2018
Noticed the light color right away. Very subtle vanilla note with some berry & prune. Expected more oak on the tongue but it had a fine fruitiness with a little hint of metal. Not wowed by it. — 5 months ago

Tower Road Paso Robles Petite Sirah 2016
BUDDA! Right off the bat, it hits the nose like fresh buttered popcorn. Then there's the plum, dark cherry and a hint of chocolate. On the tongue, it's smooth with a very slight acidic quality on the front of the tongue with some dark chocolate and fruit on the back. Deep red color with strong legs also. If you come across this one, try it — 5 months ago

Peppery and full bodied with notes of tobacco at first then caramel after it opened. A bit pricey. Enjoyed this at the winery while observing Covid restrictions. (No tastings. Had to buy the bottle.) Nice dark color. Tasted pepper, plum and caramel. — 5 months ago

Falcon's Perch Monterey County Pinot Noir 2014
Right away...much deeper color that the younger 2018 vintage. More noticeable berry and fruit notes. "This one even has legs." More prominent prune taste with hints of currant & berry. Has a more velvet texture that the 2018. — 5 months ago
