13’ Argot Bastard Tongue Pinot Noir.
Moderate reddish, purple color in the glass. The nose engages you thoroughly after 15/20 minutes. The flavors of dark red fruits, black licorice, sandalwood, earthiness ,spice box, linger for upwards of a minute. Wouldn’t pour this for a crowd of Sonoma Coast PN lovers. IMO
Drinking better then ever!

Up front funk on the nose. Blows off to reveal perfumey violets and lavender. Lush but soft palate with loads of flavor. Finish goes on and on. Nice.

12' A Bastard Tongue. Very much a full-bodied Pinot Noir. Decanted for an hour. 2/3 years it will be fantastic! Check out these wines.

Wow, should've sat on this for like 10 more years, Did not know to do that.. But full nose, hangs on the palate with acid that tingles the sinuses. Flavor? Dark thick fruits ..!
