Kind of heavy and oaky now, with the weight almost of Syrah. It’s a big, unctuous and rich wine, stuffed with elaborate chocolate-covered cherry, bacon, anise and pepper flavors. Just delicious, but not particularly Pinot-esque. Might soften and mellow in 3–5 years.——S.H.(3/1/2010)—— 88

This is the kind of California Pinot Noir Burgundophiles love to hate. It’s so full-bodied and fruity, so forward in currant, chocolate and licorice flavors, that it seems to have nowhere to go — a sin in Burgundy. And yet there’s no denying its immediate deliciousness. It fools the palate, now honey sweet, now bone dry, but always rich and spicy.——S.H.(8/1/2008)—— 90

Black cherry, wild berry and raspberry scents carry over to the palate, providing a rich mouthfeel. Intense, vibrant and concentrated, finishing with a long, complex aftertaste. Drink now through 2011. 119 cases made.??–JL??Region: California / Carneros / Napa Valley Carneros Select to Add
