I don't know what the previous vintages were like but this 2012 is beautiful. Bright fruit, bright acidity and fairly full for a Pinot. A great effort from Malibu Coast. Very impressed.

2007 Malibu Vineyard Pinot Noir. Another miss. Dried cherry, dried vanilla spice and noticeable alcohol levels. 14.7% alcohol. Proves the point that perhaps high alcohol doesn't age well. #malibu #pinot #sommelier #pinotnoir #wine

Love the label but the wine itself was already tired and lacking acid.
