2014 open end October 2017. Barely detectable scent of mint and raspberries but not much else happening on the nose. Beautifully velvet tannins from the front of the palate to the back of the palate, though! -- but this wine lacks any fruit or any tartness that can make a Pinot more interesting. If you like pure smoothness this is the wine for you. But if you like wines the challenge you a little bit, I don't think you'll like this one.

Great California Pinot! A bit young but hits the spot just right. Would definitely drink again
