A light and fruity note on the nose. A beautiful Pinot with just the balanced acidity and flavor. I’m tasting blueberry, raspberries, a touch of sour cherries and, soft leather. I was pleasantly surprised at the affordable price and the older vintage; I feel like this wine has come of age.

Of its ilk, pretty darn good. More oak than I typically like, but the fruit is subdued and alcohol is not over the top.

Enjoyed this so much a few months ago, I just had to try another bottle. Aged for 12 months, very pleasant light berry fruit aromas with slight undertones of earthiness. On the palate cherry and currants with subtle spice. I would consider this one of the lighter bodied Pinot’s I have tasted. Soft tannins lingering ending with a mineral tang. Nice, from their 1500 acre Grace Benoit Ranch in Carneros. As good as previous bottle.
