Their house style is fragrant and soft, and this vintage fits the bill. Not the most interesting, but beautifully executed.

Aromas of red fruit, with some spice. The palate shows rich red fruits of raspberries, cherries and strawberries, smooth texture, well balanced. Gentle hint of mineral essence brings this wine to a medium length finish.

So glad we waited. This is drinking incredibly. Juicy, jammy, and down right tasty. A lot to love.

5/18. Good, but heavier wine than other West Coast Pinot Noir's. $26.00. Not sure worth it.
