Somewhat brittle and nervous in the mouth, with lots of tart acidity. The flavors are brilliant, suggesting ripe cranberries, cherries and cola, with a fascinating edge of mushrooms and leather. All indications are that the wine needs time in the bottle to mellow. Drink after 2013.——S.H.(3/1/2012)—— 91

A lovely, supple Pinot Noir that makes you think of restaurants, white tablecloths and food. Dry and elegant, it has some rich tannins and crisp acidity that frame flavors of mashed ripe red cherries, cola, pomegranates, anise and pepper, with rich oak influences. This bottling has made dramatic improvements over the years.——S.H.(12/15/2008)—— 90

Rustic, with a raisiny edge, this Pinot also is rather rough and sharp in the mouth, with extracted flavors of cherries and coffee.——S.H.(12/1/2005)—— 82

Very dry and tart, with good acidity and a sprinkling of tannins that shout out for food. It has a subtle interplay of cherry, coffee, earth and mushroom flavors with a peppery edge.——S.H.(10/1/2004)—— 85
