Terrific pinot from Greg Brewer and Steve Clifton. Absolutely love their wines after a few years in bottle, they come across as a central coast version of a premier cru burgundy. The nose screams Old World with earthy notes, but the rich palate says New World with evolving layers of red berry flavors, all supported by enough acidity to keep the wine alive. Awesome pairing with Vanessa’s poached chicken with a tomatillo and jalapeno salsa on a bed of steamed spinach with onion and bell pepper. In short, life is great! 😊

Beautiful. Strawberry-raspberry. Nutmeg cinnamon clove. Plum. Baking spices and oak on the finish.

Jammy and rich but not overripe. Cherry cola, strawberries and flowers. Easy drinking.

Great nose .... Nicely aged... A little spice mixed amongst the berries. Great wine!
