A seriously good Pinot. No matter the vintage, I am always delighted with this wine. Great blue and red berries, terrific acidity and overall balanced to perfection. Usually for around half the price of Williams-Selyem (another of my favorite Pinots).

One of the best Pinots I've ever had. Strawberry and spice and a little woodsy. Stunningly delicious. @Matthew Smith -- did this come to us via @GrapeSeed Wines ? If so, what are the chances of getting more?

Tart cherries with some bitterness and straightforward balance of fruit. Very easy to like in the end

Fruit (raspberry, ripe strawberry) Perfectly balanced with some earthy elements, and dried herbs.
