Beautiful wine. Still very focused but slightly less intense than last time I tried it, so it seems more delicate. Very subtle Moroccan spice typical of the Rapley Trail vineyard. Fruit is red to black with some gentle black tea and licorice.

A lean, green acidic Pinot Noir with cold purple fruits. Food friendly. Stylish in an austere German fashion. Part of the new wave of California's cool climate wines. 75 cases total production. Approximately $75 retail.

This vineyard produces some of the most amazing wines but, this one was to die for! Sorry, not going to even try to sell you on it - just so there is more for me.
