Darker fruits than the RR. Concentrated blackberries, dark cherries, creamy black raspberries, raspberries, dark crushed minerals, big chalk, touch of clove, Asian spice, perfumed dry red and pink florals. Nice acidity and length. Finish round with big spice and candied ripe fruit.

Bright and rich red fruit, balanced and altogether enjoyable. Tadeo says this is one of his favorite wines to make and I can see why.

I enjoyed this but very typical of the area. A strong reason why AVA was sub divided however. Flavorful but lacked backbone

Full of flavor and life. Terrific strawberry fruit accentuated with cinnamon, spice box, licorice and some wet earth. Rich and supple, slightly chewy. I just love Neyers Pinot. They are doing terrific things with it.

Better with food. Bit of an acidic spice.

Strawberry, rhubarb and forest floor flavors dominate. A long finish tinged with cranberry. Well balanced, but arguably a bit more fruit-forward than past vintages. It's also a slightly flawed bottle - it's got some effervescence on the palate. Hoping just the bottle and not the shipment. Will have to open something else to check. In spite of that, it's well done.

Haven't had in a few years. Similar tasting notes; still going strong. Strawberry, cinnamon and spicebox. Some mushroom notes on the back palate. Lush and velvety. The price has been inching up in recent years, but this is still an underrated Pinot from a solid winery.

Big fruit, strawberries, spice box, rich. Some decent length, might need more time but not tasting the structure for it. Good. Questionable QPR at $40.
