The best of the Russian River! Round, juicy red fruit attack. Mid palate drifts into blueberry, thyme, allspice. Lingering vanilla seed.

Just enough V/A to have to dump it. What a shame to have to do with a 10 year in bottle Williams Selyem. Ouch! 😣

Spectacular wine! First pour was fruity and tart acting like a newly bottled Pinot. Amazing for a 14 year old bottle. But with a bit of air it transformed into a luscious full bodied smooth treat with a lovely bouquet of fruit and ripe earth. The finish just kept going. Enjoyed with a hunk of prime rib.

Open. Maybe little over hill color still very bright light purple edge. Strawberry candy floral-violets? but cold earth and wood coming through mouth may open up but lacking any flavor or structure

Bucher Vineyard 2010. Bright. Juicy. Nice acid. Lovely mouthfeel. Minty, meaty nose.
