Sipping Fine Wine Delectable Pro

Fruit for this Pinot comes from two of the coolest, most coastal parts of this appellation, linked by the influence of the Pacific’s cool marine air, which delays ripening. Ruby with berry fruit, citrus and floral spice. On the palate, strawberry and cherry, tangy, with cedar notes and earthy tones. Bright acidity, soft expressive tannins, long finish ending with tobacco and woody spice. Very nice, drink now & over next 5 years.

Huge - HUGE - fan of their single Vineyard pinots and even he Sonoma - but this one is totally different. Not as fruit forward or lush and more of the earthy side of a Pinot. It actually got better with some time. If you can find them definitely seek out the single Vineyards. This producer is on a roll and you cannot beat the price.

I usually don't like Anderson fruit, but this producer makes me a believer. So silky and balanced. Truly one of the best pinots I've drank for the money.

Unique producer with a Burgundian attitude. Not sure if this bottle was past its prime, but still had great texture and long herbal finish. Strawberries came out a bit more over time, but fruit never showed up enough to make this a knockout.

Others’ reviews confirm my experience. Bright, spicy, alluring nose. Palette has bright acidity and unripened fruit, and then falls off a cliff. No interest or depth. Probably best with food.

Guys this wine rocks! Very well done essentially like a good burgundy. Some clusters i think, chalky and tart. Blueberries and forest floor. Moos. Very impressive indeed.
