@David A Lentine @Gina Sabean @Christine Thank you so very much David!! This bottle was incredibly good. Gina Hates Pinot's and she loved this!! It's not your typical Napa Valley fruit bomb Pinot. It's finesse and opulence are amazing. I love the forest floor, which isn't found it and most NAPA pinots. Dark ruby color, dark fruit / black cherry notes, A touch of spice and everything else that makes it oh so nice! Absolutely wonderful wine. Thank you David, IOU one!

Big nose - red fruit - cola notes - spice rack - on the pallet, nice spice first, then red fruits, long finish, soft tannins, bright acidity. Complex wine. Can age for a while!

Best wine of the Macphail tasting. Very tasty but definitely not a valued buy at $95. (The 2016 was better than the 2015)

Like smoke but great fruit in the nose. Elegant fruit with a deep dark berry flavor. Awesome with our rack of lamb!
