These just get so much better with this kind of age.

It had grand evolution & integration.

Elegant & ripe on entry. Dark cherries, plum, blackberry, baked strawberries, raspberry & hints of blueberries. Muddy clays, dry herbs, powdered dry earth times, light; caramel, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanillin, withering dark, red flowers, some violets, well balanced, elegant finish that lasts 90 seconds.

Diesel/petrol, lovely Riesling fruit, I know this is way too young to drink, but the bottle looked like it wanted to be drunk today!! — a month ago

Always solid! Didn’t realize this local place had BYOB on Monday’s, although I can’t recall the last time I drank on a Monday. Classic bell pepper with cherries and subtle oak. Nice texture and tannins. — 4 days ago

I really enjoyed this bottle. It evolved steadily, improving, over a few hours. I had it on pizza night but it could easily pair well with heartier fare. Enjoy now or over the next 5+ years. — a month ago

Solid but not special. No complaints per se but it seemed more ordinary than I was expecting. Tannins were mild and dark fruit was very good. Not very long. — 2 months ago

A little shy at first but really opens up and shows after a couple hours of air. Classic Santa Cruz Mtns Pinot. Earthy. A touch candied. Long finish. Pretty wine. 👍🏼 — 3 months ago
