At height of aging - in perfect balance. Phenomenal showing after a dry Willamette Rose of Pinot noir. By far best Coteau I have had. Acid and fruit balanced out brilliantly. - 2013 vintage tasted Sep 2018.

Cherries of all kinds complicated by a waft of baking spice.

Beautifully focused medium bodied, medium acidic Pinot, that emphasizes the savory side of Cali Pinot.

Delicious. Possibly even richer than the 2012, with more dark cherry. Second day, even better... and possibly a perfect pairing with lamb.

Apr 11th, 2017Big time black cherry and dark fruits... almost too one-sided for a Pinot. Given time and some air, this one evens out and turns silky. Since it is 13.6%, it could stand a couple years in cellar. Tastes too big to last long though.

Dec 2nd, 2016Lively, fruit-forward Pinot with a solid backbone. Cherry flavors, tea leaves, a little barnyard... Delicious. Benefits from a little air, so this one can sit for another year or two.
