Cherry nose with more cherry, strawberry, rhubarb pie and minerals on the palate. When I first opened the bottle the taste was muted on the back end and a little disappointing in the finish. The wine opened up nicely, though. For a Californian Pinot the finish is above average on the tannic side, but a little light on the acid. I recommend decanting this 2013. In all very solid.
