Sadness...my last bottle of this fabulous vintage. But, wow, was it good. Earthy aromas and cherry, pomegranate flavors with some complimentary tannins on the long finish.

Whoa! This was amazingly good and gets better with age. Not your typical RRV Pinot. Very Burgundian style—complex yet delicate.

Picked from young and old vines, hillside and floor. Nicely balanced, med body, high acid, complex, but needs time.
