Classic and elegant on the nose. Sour cherry and rhubarb, but hardly a fruit driven wine. The oak comes off as authentic and very well done. Good value.

Holler, autumn, you're making yourself heard with this ethereal #SonomaCoast #PinotNoir, all rose and underbrush and dusty mineral. Plush tannin, velvet-really-velvet texture...like sitting in a plum velvet seat at an opera house. Music sold separate, alas.

Light but fruity - a lot of red fruit and some plums.

For $25 this is fair but Rivers Marie Sonoma Coast at the same price is impossible to beat

Loved finding this 4 years after their inaugural. somewhat overbearing oak treatment, but this should mellow.
