Very pedestrian. Muted fruit, mealy, warm strawberries, rhubarb, vanilla. On a big downward spiral.

Dark cherry, spice, a little forest floor - generous & shows the vintage but impeccably balanced.

2007 vintage. Holy bleep! Mature, mysterious nose replete with leather, must, brett, barnyard and a modicum of whatnot. The usual, candied intro long gonzo. Light, silken body. Great color. Tasted one, two and three hours after decanting. Normally, a 15+ yo CA pinot would be long gone geek but this one seemingly at the top of the bell curve and with attitude. More than surprised. 4.2.23.

Fine, fine bottle - powerful aroma of cola

Actually, not only am I drinking this with Joe, but I be drinking it with uncle Bill, uncle Bob, and aunt Michelle. And this was one damn good one. It was the perfect pairing with aunt Michelle's chicken pie. That's probably true so. So stick that in your cuvée.

Russian River Valley to the core. I'm a sucker for the cola nose/flavor and the elegant texture. 2007. Showing the benefit of some age.

Second bottle after 4 years. Probably a bit too late...perfectly balanced in the nose, but a little bit too much alcohol in the palate.

Unfortunately this bottle seemed a little over the hill. More prune-brawny characteristics w/ not an appealing finish. I love these wines and have consistently bought them. Unfortunately this one was over.
