Cherry on the nose, very clean. Berries and minerals on the palate. Full bodied for a Pinot. All in all, just delicious.

Tasted the 2013--delicious and well-rounded, with a pleasing balance of fruit, flowers, spice, earth, tannins and minerals. Despite its youth it does not have an excess of acidity, tannin or jammy fruit that can bedevil California Pinot Noir. Silky mouthfeel, lingering finish and a true pleasure to drink.
