This may be one of the best Pinots that I have ever tasted. Medium body,very smooth, but tannic as well. Excellent.

I really wanted to love this one more. It was excellent, but not quite as good as the regular single vineyard RRV offering.

It has definitely receded with age. Much different than the 2012s I enjoyed several years ago. The fruit is muted and it’s a bit more astringent. But it’s a lingering finish and it has a nice mouthfeel. The alcohol seems more pronounced now though. I liked it as different but I prefer the youthful version with more pop and balance.

This was still very good but possibly on the downward slope now. A Pinot with a bit of pop and zip.
