This Sonoma Pinot Noir is drinking perfectly after almost 10 years with bold aromas & flavors of blackberries, plums, along notes of graphite and forest floor.  The palate is nearly perfectly balanced with well integrated tannins and punchy acidity through a long finish. A wonderful pairing with reverse seared Filet mignon and fried garlic green beans! [8/16/24] ($33)

Nice dark jammy fruit with the right amount of Oak. 10 years cellared. Delicious with steak and then stew!

This Chardonnay is very balanced and has a real character of fruit and acidity that gives great pleasure. The oak influence is there but not dominant. Green gold color with sound white stone fruit tones. Very well made it shows the terroir as much as possible. 👍👍

More of a traditional Pinot, fruity but slightly metallic at the end, not nearly as good as the Kesner before
