Wine tasting at Gary Farrell. Couldn’t get the bottles so you see the menu! Love their Chardonnays. More of a French burgundy approach. We all liked the first Pinot. Light with red fruit. Then palates divided as we went down the line. The Pinots are not to my liking but well made wines- just not my flavor profile. California Pinot always has a hint of tin/ metal for me.

Mar 18th, 2018Really nice Pinot enjoyed tonight! I'm not sure that I liked previous vintages of this as much as this one. Sweeter fruit in the front and back. Sort of a roasted raspberry nose combined with good acidity, a little bit of Earth, very ample young fruit. The thing this one needs more than anything else is about three years in the bottle. Went exceptionally well with herbed pork.
