Medium ruby color. Aromas of cherry, baking spice, hint of hay and blackberry. A bit stronger than the Rosellas Vineyard. Dark cherry, cocoa and plum on the palate. — 13 days ago

Nursed this bottle over four hours to see how it developed. Flavors are mostly black cherry and red plum fruit leather. Some black pepper character as well. Seed tannins are dominant. The overall impression is age it longer, or decant it for longer than four hours. — 2 months ago

So a muted Pinot flavor. I want to say a hint of effervescence but that’s not really true. It’s the acidity showing itself a bit more than it has in other bottles or due the food we had (spicy)... It’s distracting me a bit from the other flavors. The nose is different. I don’t want to say smoke but something is different on this one. — a month ago

2021 vintage. First tasted this wine with the 1991 vintage when it was resto cost $240 a 12-pack case (which was pretty pricey for CA chard at the time). FF three decades where I'm pouring this btg and paying less than the 1991 pricing. Has always held a soft spot in my heart. Unique flavor profile that consistently upends a blind white Burgundy tasting as a ringer-regardless of the price range involved...and it do get pricey these daze. Still bringing the serious mineral hammer along with bracing acidity but a bit of lanolin and variety of citrus when things warm up a tad. Last tasted 5.5.23 (9.1). 10.27.24. — 25 days ago

Bright Ruby color, purple edges, with aromas of ripe fruits, floral and complex spice, vineyard planted in 1991. On the palate concentrated flavors of blueberry, strawberry and cherry with citrus, herbs, vanilla and oak, aged on French oak, soft tannins on well balanced structure. Full body, rich long finish, ending with ripe fruit, vanilla, floral and oaky tones. Very Nice! Will age a bit! — 2 months ago
