Sweet, slightly toasty oak spice sits astride a generous measure of lively, yet well-ripened fruit in both the outgoing aromas and moderately deep flavors of this solidly varietal offering, and the wine's balance of flesh and firm acids is wholly in keeping with what young Pinot should be. It has the credentials to grow for a bit but is eminently drinkable now.

Rating for United States-California: 90 (slightly better than average year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: unpredictable<br/>

delicious fruit, soft silky finish. vinturi and it goes down smooth and lovely.
