Again, if it’s a Marcassin Blue Slide Ridge Pinot, it’s probably from @Dan Fitzgerald . These continue to remain the greatest Cali pinots I’ve tasted to date. This probably could benefit from another 3-5 years of cellaring. So much pure raspberries, fresh squeezed blackberries, cedar. Little bit of black cherry. Full bodied but not overpowering. Fantastic.

Sublime and complex, silky, well rounded - should be even more magnificent in 5-10yrs
