A little angularity in the tannin, finish a little clipped, but very nice aromatics and very fresh. Some nice texture but a bit disjointed.

Dark fruit and a very smooth sip. It is wonderful with canneloni and salad.

Held up over 3 nights. More spice than usual, light tannic structure, cherry and a bit of earth on the palate. Finish waned by day 3 but still sweet and enjoyable.

Big on the spices, light on the red fruits. This is beautiful but not for me. I find it and Pinot from Anderson generally, shrill.

Feb 2nd, 2018Thirty minutes of decanting helped from the sharp immediate taste; what emerged was almost luxurious flavors: sour cherry, plum, apple skin (This is Sonoma, after all). Lovely with sausage and strong vegetables.

Light brick red with Anthill’s normal unfiltered opacity. Hints of clove, cinnamon and savory baking spice. Medium body with silken weightless texture and bright acid/ fruit balance. Perhaps my favorite producer of “Turkey wine”. Always a hit among inlaws and outlaws.

Cloudy and pale ruby - unfiltered? Subtle red fruit flavors and slight vanilla bean. Way too smooth.

This stuff is killing it. Elegant, intellectual, tasty, balanced.

A little austere/reticent right now. Give it some more time in the bottle.
