On the nose, this is concentrated cherry and raspberry... On the palate, this is again deep cherry, raspberry, blueberry, cranberry, red plum skin... A very satisfying body that makes me think of a bowl of cornflakes... Tannins are not sharp at all really just contributing to an overall smooth yet still intense expression. The finish is medium with the blueberry and some baking spice more prominent at the end... — 19 days ago

There’s something to be said for nursing a bottle slowly over several days. I’ve been loving how this wine from my friends at @peay_vineyards blossoms with some time and some air. What was boisterous herbal and berry fruit has mellowed with the addition some serious umami character and a hint of incense. The one constant is the satin-sheets sexy texture that marks most of Vanessa Peay’s best work as a winemaker. While I think Peay’s best wines are from their unique estate on the Sonoma Coast, I’m glad they’ve kept making this Anderson Valley wine, if only to continue setting a standard for what Savoy can do. — 3 years ago

Really nice. Medium-bodied, medium-minus acid; honey, sweet hay, and slightly nutty, honeysuckle, with ripe yellow pear, and a hint of tropical from the Gewurtz. — 25 days ago

92-93 this is great. Earth, chocolate , and cherry. Hard to beat for $27 at Costco. @Vanessa they have at SLP and MG. Check it out! I’d love to see your notes on this.
That was PnP. After 2 hrs this is really opening up. It’s complex and structured and sticky adding to previous notes tobacco and teeth coating tannins. Wish I’d have purchased more than a case. — 2 years ago

Another wine from Ciro at Le Volpe e l’uva, this vermentino was terrific and was a perfect pairing with the homemade potato gnocchi with pesto that Vanessa made for dinner. Yum! — 4 years ago

Light and fruity, but smooth. Like a bigger Pinot Noir. Vanessa loved (May 2024) — 6 months ago

Pisoni Estate Pinot has become something of a tradition at our house for Thanksgiving...and as usual, it did not disappoint. Not sure it was quite as good as the sourdough stuffing Vanessa made to accompany dinner...but it was close! — 4 years ago
