Mills Vineyard Pinot Noir
Strawberry, vanilla, tea leaf and christmas spice on the nose continue fluidly on the palate. Beautiful balance with these light tannins. A touch of alcohol on the finish, but overall, really integrated wine.

Jul 19th, 2019Bing cherry and spicy in the palate. Tannins were soft with well balanced acidity. This bottle was in a perfect spot. 2010 Mills Calera, 35th anniversary vintage. Keep up the good work!

Jun 2nd, 2017Pleasant. Cherry fruit. No earthy notes, a bit of a one-note expression. .......
Two days later - I think it magically improved! Now I'm getting more earthy notes. I revise my rating!
