First impression was that the boring kids from school has crashed the party. Fake out! 30 minutes in and it's pretty obvious that you picked the wrong wine for dinner. From meh to man! Complex and concentrated, full and friendly. But underage. This kid should not have been invited to the party.

Excellent masculine Pinot Noir that reminds me of a Gevrey-Chambertin. And it is reasonably priced. A great value at $31. This is a Pinot Noir for steak or lamb, not pizza, but I drank it with pizza and still enjoyed it.

First of a Tommy George double dip from the weekend. Pre-meal classic Pinot with big berries on the nose. Nice complex finish that didn’t disappoint.

Gorgeous, strong acid core. Provide structure for everything else to grow on. Bright fruit, but nicely tannic.

Yet another example of how great the 2012 vintage is. Dark, fruity with a hint of vanilla.
