Wow. Burgundy, ladies and gentlemen. Light, but powerful. Menthol, dirty raspberries and birchwood. Awesome acidity on the palate...nothing extracted about this. All the red fruits. Potpourri. Lavender and red flowers. The aromas are incredible.

Another example of why 2011 Pinots are my favorite. Super expressive nose of cranberry, orange zest and thyme. Nice acidity and lingering finish.

Big and ripe for a Swan, but has some balancing pomegranate and cranberry tartness that lifts it up a little. Better with pork tinga that muted a bit of the heat.

Quite floral, rose petals, faint leather, dried dark fruits underneath, very nice balancing acidity, seems close to mature, long finish, very good!!

미국와인은 역시 비싼걸 사야하는건가
최근 실망했던 미국와인들에 대한 이미지를 확 바꿔놓을 만큼 만족!

Really nicely aged Pinot 2012. Well balanced acid and tanins. Notes of raspberry and tobacco. Excellent value.

Wow, this wine knocked our socks off. Light but complex, some tart fruit with a touch of earthiness. A really wonderful spectrum of flavor and texture as it passed through a sip.
