Great texture. Bit of earth with strong fruit tones. Lovely with Point Reyes Bay Blue.

Super light Pinot! Cranberry, cherry, smell of a cool/damp river bed.

Delicious. Savory, plenty of acid, develops into some high-tone floral notes and black cherries. Great balance. For $19? All day.

This just goes to show you how well pinot ages and the value of patience. This wine was probably 20 dollars when it was purchased a decade ago, and now it drinks better than most anything in that price. Rustic red fruits, sour cherry and acid still alive.
