Screw top, drop top. Initially came across a bit awkward but smoothed our after about 20 minutes in the glass. Ripe red berries. Definitely on the bolder end of the PN spectrum but seemed varietally correct. Thanks Tom!

Light Ruby in color with a brick rim.

Strong nose of blackberries, blueberries, cherries, licorice, oak, vanilla, barnyard, earth, bell pepper, spices, chocolates, vegetables, alcohol and peppercorn.

Medium bodied and smooth, with medium acidity and nice legs.

Dry on the palate with cherries, wild strawberries, red currants, oak, vegetables, smoke, plums, earth, mushrooms, peppercorn, spices and herbs.

Nice finish with soft tannins and raspberries.

A Nice Napa Valley Pinot Noir. This Single Vineyard is smooth and elegant with nice complexity and balance. Not my style, but definitely above average.

Good right out of the bottle and gets better in the glass with a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel.
Drinking very nicely now.

14.2% alcohol by volume.

Smooth as silk. No Carneros funk. Delightful.

I thoroughly enjoy this Pinot noir. Ripe cherry notes with blackberry and plum, with a chocolate tobacco finish.
