Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with cherries, sweet raspberries, light wood and chocolate notes.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, red currants, plums, light wood, earth, herbs, spices and black pepper.
Tangy finish with soft tannins and tangy cranberries.
This 8 year old Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is drinking at its peak now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.
Easy drinking, fruit forward and engaging. Elegant, complex and nicely balanced.
A good quality wine. Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A good sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.

Something to help the transition from Champagne to Cabernet.
Cobb & Hirsh Pinot Noirs are quite similar to me. Both well made, are good but have never astounded.
This 2014 is near its precipice.
The body is round & inviting. I sense a touch of tannins. Black cherries, blackberries, poached strawberries, pomegranate, just a hint of rhubarb, hovering raspberries, plum, haunting blueberries and black raspberries. Tree sap, hints of eucalyptus, dry crushed rocks, dry twig, light clove, some nutmeg, cinnamon, and feathery vanillin, lightly grilled meats, mix of fresh and used tobacco with soft ash, old used leather, soft, black pepper, mid dark spice, sandalwood, sandstone, red, purple and dark flowers, nice acidity with a softly tensioned, nicely balanced, elegantly, soft finish that lasts 90 seconds and lands softly on mid toned spices on the long set. — 4 months ago
Beguiling wine with aromatic and structural intensity, yet airy weightlessness. 11.2%- I think they probably could have pushed this to at least 11.6 — 2 months ago
