45 min decant(little cloudy sediment). An exquisite dark ruby red color. On the nose: Nice delicate nose of sour cherry, spice, orange peel, vanilla, and some cedar. Taste: Wow!! A velvety palate draws you in with black cherry, pepper, earth, and a juicy minerally cedar long finish.

A perfect wine to celebrate (pizza and pinot) the SF Giants NL West win today!....hey evil Dodgers, have fun playing St. Louis on Wednesday (NOT!)

Celebrating the San Francisco Giants division win tonight! Another favorite Pinot of mine. This 2010 Sea Smoke starts with a noticeable deep ruby red color. It appears bright and delicate. A smoky tart cherry nose typical of this wine stands out as the aromas fill your senses with lingering notes of vanilla, orange peel & spices and a subtle cedar. No disappointment in flavor. Its flavorful fruit hits the palate with tart cherry-plum. Acidity is high giving its elegant flavors that blend with oak earth, peppery spice and a mineral cedar long finish.

Fabulous! Black cherries, blueberries, currants, blackberries, and a bit of pepper. Yum!

Dark fruits, floral with minerals on the mid-palette with delicate structure. This was a nice wine to drink.
