Cute label. Color is light red, ruby. Just a hint or orange on the edge. Smells pretty classic, smoked stuff meets cherry jam. Flavors are nicely balanced. Plenty of strawberry jam and fruity fun, but nice acids. Bright. Juicy. Finish is dense and strong. Hint savory on that finish. Fresh mint mixed with basil. Lemon basil maybe. This is a very nice CA AVA Pinot. Leaves nothing out. Complete. — a month ago

+3Y in the cellar has really benefited this wine, generous strawberry, ripe apricot, orange zest tingle the senses, finally.

Too sweet for @Jennifer Jenkins….not this guy. Acidity provides great balance, with a nice minerality. — a month ago

I’ve always loved the 2003 Napa Cabernets despite vintage charts and reviews.

This wine was procured at auction dirt cheap and it’s one of the early Kelly Fleming wines - maybe 2nd vintage.

Needed airtime and oxygen. Still a lot of power and dark flavors. Fruit remains and it’s quite a solid wine. Winner in my book — 8 months ago

Wow, this continues to be one of my favorite Provence rosés, ripe strawberry, cold peach, watermelon rind, damp limestone, white pepper; with +3Y of age we're at peak enjoyment.

I have to agree with @romo - it is indeed funky, savory and divisive. I enjoyed, @Jennifer Jenkins did not — 4 months ago
