Cherry, cedar, sea salt. Delicious with the roast, herbal chicken and the rack of lamb leftovers.

Drinking wonderfully well. Notes of cherry, cedar, sea salt. Delicious on its own.

Coravin pours over 2 days. Delicious red fruit, cherry, cedar, sea salt. I definitely get the Sonoma Coast sense of place. Really good, especially for a “bad” vintage. Best with the Atlantic salmon and roast chicken

I am not a great fan of PN in general so when I get that CA PN bitterness in the finish, I have to lower my score. Also, pretty pricey for the quality.

Another dull bottle. Mildly cloudy in appearance and flavor. So in the last 10 months we had: 1 good, 2 poor. Combining my experience with DJ Cooper's three reports below, we have a 50% fail rate. Unacceptable bottle variation.

Medium light red. Very bright. Delicious red fruit nose, cherry, raspberry and nutmeg. Delicious, elegant red fruit flavours and a nice balanced finish. So nice, not ripe or rich but not Burgundy either. A balanced Pinot Noir for those who love fruit.

Just a bit dull. Had a brief moment but faded quickly.

pretty big wine on day one; and a little disjointed. Vin-vaced and refrigerated for two days, and this blossomed. light spice and red fruit on the nose. harmonious across the palate. balanced. notes of rainier cherry, red plum and subtle spice notes of nutmeg and white pepper.

Light red. Elegant cherry and mineral nose. Floral. Light flavours and a nice dry finish. This wine was on the light side. Actually it got better as it sat in the decanter. Last glass was best. Enjoyed at Nightingale

Light ruby in the glass with aromas of cherries, hints of Forrest floor but mostly a fruit dominated nose. The pallate matches the nose but full of red cherries, and raspberry with refreshing acidity and somewhat of an earthy finish. Not extraordinary but a very good Sonoma Coast Pinot.

A delicious California pinot, with raspberry-cherry fruit, herbs and a whiff of that Sonoma Coast salinity. Very nice.

Dry cork that broke in half on removal. Wine was dried out, unpleasant--no resemblance to other recent reports (and this is why I love CT). Will presume defective.

Very nice. Glad I bought 6 bottles and for a very good price as well.

Fresh aromas of red cherry/raspberry, earth & herbs. The palate matches with a nice balance of fresh fruit along with earth/herbs and medium acid/tannins to add structural support. Drinking well now with a couple hours of air but should age through its 10th birthday.
