Intense sweet raspberry pie atop a burly structure with some cinnamon and cedar - very much new world flavors with old world soul as you might expect from this producer. A wonderful bottle aged to perfection.

Great, every Drouhin wine is great. Fresh, packed with fruit and structure, distinct oak profile that isn't overt. Is there a better aging vintage than 05 in the valley?

2012 Louise - Rich cherry fruit, a little medicinal, not bad, just not that exciting to me.

Dark, full bodied, black and blue fruit with a through line of acidity. Hints of port on the finish. With nearly 10 years in bottle, it drank more like a cab than warmer climate Pinots, but had more vibrancy and delineation.

Dark red color. Nose of berry cherry with similar but sl bitter palate. Hint of vanilla? Very smooth. This is a very good wine
