Aged lovely. The tannins have softened. Floral and ripe raspberries and stewed blackberries. Leather, tobacco, and vanilla. Still noticeable acidity on the finish. Can’t wait to open another vintage. — 5 years ago

Medium ruby with strawberry, red cherry and redcurrant on the nose. Hints of vanilla and cedar. A touch of farm or earth. This wine has a nice balance of acidity and alcohol. Still developing, but definitely can drink now. — 6 years ago

We were right to age this bold and juicy wine. Memories of our first trip to Paso. Audacious is a proper name. Grenache, Cabernet, Syrah and Petite Sirah all come together for beautifully. — 6 years ago

9.0

Garnet, medium intensity, cranberry, strawberries dominate, medicinal, hints of Brett, and cherry. More dried cranberry on the palate, cherry sneaks back in and rivals the acidity that lingers throughout the finish. Quite youthful could easily rest this longer. — 6 years ago

This needs more time. Pours like a Zin, big jammy nose, punchy, the ABV is definitely saying hello. Dark Bing cherry, strawberry compote, leather, dark chocolate, all contribute to a solid base...but misses on the refined quality of some other Pinots at this price point. — 7 years ago
