Cherry strawberry and chalky character. The whole cluster made me think Burgundy when blinded. A little grippy gritty finish

Loads of spice - tea, bay leaves, tobacco. Raspberry, dark cherry, & hints of smoke on the finish.

Still holding up with enough tannins to make the cherries, raspberries, smokey flavors meld and soften over time.

Lithe and a bit Barolo like to me. Eucalyptus, some earth, fruit in the mouthful, balanced acidity. Very enjoyable

Fresh and young Pinot. Still a lot of dill on the nose, but that classic Calera fruit comes through. Acidic and a tiny bit of tannin. Yummy but I have had better from Calera.
