Classic raspberry bramble of a nose.

Light to medium bodied - strawberry jam, a touch of green tea and sarsaparilla. The well integrated acid rear up, and sings it’s way through till the end.
This is a classic wine house, and although it leans a little to the hotel side of the wine world, it’s worth to let sit for a couple of years, and blow off some of that over reaching Cali flavor.

Color of dark burgundy, with a bit purple tone, and a bit cloudy. Nose of concentrated aldehyde, dried strawberry, nice vanilla, milky chocolate, a bit tobacco leaves, ripe cherry. Nose is fragrant and keeps coming. Taste follows the nose with addition of oak, zest, ripe grapes, refined sweetness, and silky. Almost no tannins. Aftertaste is mellow with some more peppery and minty note, and warmth from alcohol, and some more ripe grapes. Non conventional Pinot Noir yet beautiful.

Well balanced cali style pinot. Slightly fruit forward but not overly done. Silky smooth, very good for the money. This would please just about anyone.
