Dark as solstice night. Aroma is lovely. Cranberry and pine needles. Flavors are European. Chaparral plants. Bright finish. Lacks the funk, but it’s still lovely Syrah. — 5 days ago

Cool critter label with a peacock. Copper color. Smells a bit honeyed. Flavors are stone fruits. Peach, apricots and yellow/green plums. Fuller than expected. Most balance I’ve gotten from a Pinot Grigio. This is good. Full and fleshy. — 10 days ago

Lighter color. Smells a bit of barnyard with a swamp-y side. With a berry and cherry undertone. Flavors are complex and fun. Riper than expected. Tasty too. Straight berry stuff. Lovely. — 5 days ago

Trying it again with more attention. Last tasting was at a party and it was the last wine. Old, old wine. Pretty rusty and old looking. Smells like old books and cooked berry products. Flavors are more interesting. Some complex berry notes. Dusty cherry. Strange mossy or forestal thing in the finish. This is pretty interesting stuff. Probably an amazing vineyard that is making $500 bottles now… — 10 days ago

Dark color. Not explosive in the nose. Hint savory. Some herb/spice. Flavors are old. Books, attics, and leather. Bit strange. Almost has roasted beets and roasted meats. Extra complex. — 5 days ago

The neighbor of the beast label. (667 next to 666). But like a clone number actually. Very dark maroon. Deep color for a Pinot Noir. Smells like candy and fruit punch. Flavors are very new world. Cherry Coke. Sweet tea. Vanilla. This is cheap CA AVA stuff and it shows. This Pinot used to be much better. Now it is pretty much a middling plonk — 6 days ago

Pretty color. Bit rusty. Smells q little funky. Hints of berries, but also lots of shrubbery. Woodsy and funky flavors. Aged. Strange-ish. It’s a classic old wine. — 12 days ago

Aged and in a magnum. What a fancy bottle. Joy to try this. Hint of rust red on the edge of the color. Nose is cherry cordial and herbs. Sage, marjoram, fresh wood. Flavors are lovely. Still has zip. Herbal. Lush. Complex. This is lovely aged Syrah. Has a bit of mystery and is nicely aged. — 13 days ago
