Wonderful structure and very balanced. I love Pinots from Mendocino and this lives up to my expectations! Though it's a young vintage, it's definitely drinkable now, but can easily be aged for 10+ years.

Quite youthful and a bit stiff on day one, but a pleasure to sip the next day. Bright blue fruits and a pleasing and tangy finish. Tasty.

This has a ton going on aromatically. Bright cran, to orange zest, loamy soil and Chinese five spice. Light to medium bodied in the mid. Juicy and just enough tannin to keep it in balance. Could drink this everyday. Can't get enough of this producer whether Pinot or Syrah.
