More ripe and fruity than I remembered. Clearly warm climate #pinot #sbcountywines brown sugar and raspberry pie nose, balanced and soft tannins. Delicious wine, but perhaps lacking tension, acidity and texture.

Pretty good. Rich with some berry aromas. Pairs well with assertive flavors (lamb or soy sauce/hoisin). 2013 vintage.
