Very nice Sonoma Pinot; well reviewed and well regarded. For the price, though, I was expecting more. In fact, I am ever so slightly disappointed, given the hype. Not as complex and beguiling as Marcassin. Other Pinots all over California compare favorably, at half the price. I bought two bottles, so let’s see if this improves with a bit more age. Had the 2018 vintage with Christmas duck, duck, goose (Cantonese roast duck and Peking Duck from Hop Woo and house roasted goose—mmmm!).

In my opinion one of the best RRV from them. Reminds me of 04. Packed with black cherries, dr. Pepper like spice, touch of oak. Well balanced with no holes, long finish . Very approachable at this young age. Excellent

Good Pinot Noir but not worth its high price. Simple Pinot Noir that is well made but not complex.

California Pinot Noir is always a bit thin compared to those from Oregon.

Young but had to try. Good but certainly would be better with time.

Ruby coloration. Some transparency when held to light. On the nose, cranberry, raspberry and florals. On the palate, medium body, nice lush mouthfeel, plum, cranberry, cherry tobacco and vanilla in the finish, which is lengthy. A wine with some depth for sure.
