What’s so interesting about this Pinot Noir is the rich vein of earthiness that makes it more Old World than California. It has a mélange of things that come from the ground: mushrooms, dried herbs, forest floor, bark, pine cones. Burgundy fans will understand. There’s also enough cherries and currants, not to mention sweet smoky oak, to satisfy fruit fans.

This is a heavy, dense and not very rewarding Pinot Noir at this time. It’s soft and full-bodied and very ripe in cherries, blackberries and cola flavors. Could age to mellow sweetness, but it’s a gamble.

Fruity and dry, with jammy cherry, raspberry, red currant, cola, tobacco and spice flavors and a crisp streak of acidity. Not especially complex, but a tasty, fashionable Pinot that will go well with a great grilled steak.

A bit heavy and full-bodied, without the elegant silkiness you want in a Pinot Noir. Tastes like a warm-climate Grenache, with low acidity and jammy flavors of cherries and currants. Drink now.

The vineyard is in the Santa Rita Hills, and the wine impresses with the classic structure of this fine coastal appellation. It’s big, fat and chewy for a Pinot Noir, but despite the size retains elegance due to the fine acid-tannin structure. With the massive currant, black cherry pie filling and carob flavors, it should soften for the next six years.

The toughness of this wine works in its favor, giving it a chewy mouthfeel that balances and grounds the sweet currant, cassis and licorice flavors. Notes of black pepper, tobacco and herbs add to this impression of earthiness. It’s a lovely wine, and fully drinkable now.
