Cherry, raspberry, currant, cranberry, mossy earth and oak. Medium-bodied and well-integrated tannins.

Dry, smooth wine, but a bit flat for my taste

The cork disintegrated when opening the bottle. However, the wine is still very good. Medium body, graceful, delicious. Initially it smelled of black cherries now it is more like spice.. meat???
Surprisingly fresh for 12 years in bottle

A very nice surprise. Crisp cherries, raspberries, strawberries and spice with a lush acidity.

I love it when we “have to” clear out the cellar a bit. Nice 2008 @WoodenheadWines Pinot

Can taste it is a touch past its prime but still delicious. Goes well with the game gem we are having for dinner.

Everything I dislike about CA Pinot: market driven to deliver lots of oak and pepper.

Stumbled on this winery in Sonoma Ana love it. Fruit forward Sonoma Pinot that still has some elegance, especially after a couple years bottle age.
