Tasting note: A chunky, robust style, with dense tannins underlying the black cherry, chocolate and spice notes. It's concentrated, yet brooding, needing time to come together. (90pts. BS, Wine Spectator)

Tasted: Apr. 30, 2006
Score: 90
Drink: 2008-15

Tasting note: Fresh deep red. Tangy raspberry aroma complicated by rose petal and brown spices. Juicy, sappy and sweet, with very fresh flavors for the vintage. Not especially fleshy but light on its feet. Finishes with good but not outstanding length and a bit of unresolved acidity. (88pts. Stephen Tanzer)

Tasted: Apr. 2006
Score: 88
Drink: N/A

Tasting note: There is no reduction at all here with bright and elegant red pinot fruit aromas and ripe, rich and sweet flavors that are utterly delicious and this finishes with fine finishing complexity and the ample sap completely buffers the moderately firm tannins. (87-89pts. Allen Meadows AKA “The Burghound”)
