Note di degustazione
Good full red. Red fruit and milk chocolate aromas are lifted by a floral element. Sweet, broad and fairly rich, with decent clarity to the redcurrant, cherry, cola, brown spice and rooty underbrush flavors. This moderately sweet wine spreads out nicely on the back, finishing with dusty tannins and decent verve.

(bottled in February of 2007) Good full red. Bright aromas of raspberry, flowers and minerals. Concentrated and distinctly wild, with excellent depth of fruit but less obvious sweetness and pliancy than the Temblor or Deep Camp. This juicy, firmly structured pinot needs at least a couple years of bottle aging to express itself. Perhaps best today on the whiplash of a finish. Incidentally, these 2005 pinots were aged in 50% to 60% new barrels.
