Really fantastic wine. It is a more full bodied style but very well put together. Concentrated yet smooth and some how finds some elegance. Great nose and lingering finish. Nice.

A very full bodied, deep and enjoyable wine but seemed more like a Syrah than a Pinot.

This is a first rate Russian River Valley pinot noir. Expressive, red fruit nose, and moderate-full bodied palate. Nice black fruit. Very enjoyable and a big hit at the dinner party.

Probably the biggest, baddest, richest pinot I've ever had. New world all the way and a bit over-the-top on the new oak for me. Rich black cherry pie, vanilla, brown sugar, leather, spice, and flowers.

Once again another fabulous Venge wine. Delicious Had with one pot Italian orzo and chicken what do I want if stranded on a deserted island -- a case of Venge wines and a cork screw of course
