This wine was sourced from their Estate Vineyard on the historic Stanly Ranch, Amaral, Mitsuko, Saintsbury, and Huichica Hills vineyards. It represents an excellent value for Calfornia Pinot. The wine opens with lovely aromatics of nutmeg, red cherry, oak and red currant. Flavors of cherry cola, raspberry and cranberry persist. This lithe quaff is simply delicious now as I can’t see any point in cellaring it. (Best 2015-2020) - August, 2015 (OB)
