Very light color. Complex, Burgundian nose. Sappy slightly sour cherry, warm brioche, moist humus, and loads of limestoney minerals. Lean, with lots of clingy sour cherry fruit and limestone. High acidity makes it seem more youthful than a typical 7 year old Cali PN. Very unique style for New World. Compares well to an Auxerrois or Sancerre Pinot.

Light ruby color. Floral, hint of star jasmine on the bouquet. Mineral gives way to subtle pepper and spice. Velvet smooth finish.

A touch of funk, rich tart cherries and a floral-and-gar rogue element that gave this a near Burgundian feel for a Marin County wine. Lovely and great QPR. Better on day two.

Pretty advanced, even for an '08 but with some very interesting and tasty subtle undertones.

I liked this wine, more so than the last time I had a bottle. Good fruit and acid, a touch hot though. Still, very drinkable CA Pinot.
