Fantastic at the price point. The kind of CA Pinot I really enjoy; light to medium bodied, finessed, perfumed. Acid driven, stemmy, with cherries, strawberries, roses, a bit of earth and some briny coastal elements.

Just stellar. Vanilla, wet earth, fallen fruit. Balance of a tightrope walker. 🔥

My style of CA pinot noir - floral fruit and spice, nimble on the palate, bright acid to keep it refreshing.

New world wine, old world soul. Crunchy, savory & straight-delish.

A fantastic blending of earth and fruit. Ample but I non-aggressive oak frames the body & flavors well. Very refined.
