Medium ruby color; cherries, blackberries, and a little oak on the nose; high acidity; medium tannins; tastes like cranberries, menthol, and plums with a long finish. Nellie says it's ok. I think it's really good. It's better after breathing for about 30 minutes. I think it would pair well with Thanksgiving dinner. — 5 months ago

Jarvis has always been such a unique producer with its incredible underground facility and fascinating lineup of wines. Their Finch Hollow Chardonnays (this one and the Unfiltered version) are outrageously expensive, but they sure know how to deliver on flavor profile.

My notes here are actually quite similar to the 2015 I opened last year, but everything is a touch more restrained. Normally quite rich with expensive oak usage, this seems nicely balanced…it’s almost fresh in profile. Sweet lemon cream alongside marzipan and sea breeze aromatically. From a phenolic standpoint, it’s close to some of the Aubert offerings with its powerful texture. Finishes with a surprising amount of honeysuckle, caramel dipped apple, and honeycrisp. This seems to be built for a bit longer aging compared to the 2015. I’ll be curious to see how the 2018 is. — 2 years ago

Elegant, perfumed and delicious! Excellent example of high-end California Pinot Noir. Silky, with complex earthy notes, bright fruit and ultra soft tannins. Enjoyed the 2019 vintage with bone-in pork chop at Finch & Fork in Santa Barbara. — 3 years ago

Vintage 2006 | deep colour, ruby red/brown rim, classic smell with laurel, cassis, autumn forrest, milkchocoalte, taste still powerfull, probably enough reserves to go another 5 years, but it gives joy now. Good balance and fine acidity. | Paired with beef finch, potatoes from the oven and a salad / mixed vegetables. — 6 months ago

Nose is layered with bright and rich raspberry amongst lots of savoury leather and oak spice complexity. More and more of the same on the palate with terrific structure and length. Awesome, I just had to keep coming back to this. (Cab Sauv, Merlot, Cab Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec) — 2 years ago
