Had this year & half ago, got another bottle, aged well! Rich deep Ruby, aromas of dark berry fruit & rustic spices. 100% Pinot Noir wine aged on French oak for 14 mos, (35% new) before bottling in December ’15. On the palate, the wine was medium+ in weight showing sweet cherry, plum & blackberry. Pinot had velvet tannins encircled by lively acidity & touch of pepper & gentle oak giving the wine tremendous depth & balance. Elegant wine with great length on the finish. Extraordinary! Only 828 cases produced!

WOW. Big and rich. It tastes like it hung out with jammier wines while it was growing up. To set expectations, it wasn't a light or fruity pinot but DEELISH. So good. Try it!!

This is the 2011 quail vineyard. Lovely nose of raspberry and vanilla. In the mouth a bit lacking in concentration and the heat tends to overpower the delicate fruit but very pleasing.
