On day one, it's hard to approach. Lots of edges and spurs. On day three, it settles in. Aromas like cherry cordial, cinnamon and dried herbs. Assertive concentration delivers lively pomegranate, cherry, underripe plum flavors with tannins that should mellow with time. I appreciate that it doesn't read like a Cal Pinot, and sets its own, high-elevation Sierra Foothills course.
