It’s got POP! Seriously bright with lively acid. Punchy raspberry, cranberry, and deep forest floor with complexity that belies its weight. Mmm mmm, good. — 7 years ago

Jackpot. Love me some cool climate cali Pinot. Got a little bit of baby fat on it right now but there is some terrific structure underneath this. Wonderful depth of earthiness, fruit and hint of mint.

Halcón has done something fantastic with this. They really brought their Syrah talents to Pinot here and I'm digging it. — 9 years ago

Excellent chard. Typical nose. Great finish. 2019 vintage tasted May 2025. Wine that really benefits from some age. — a year ago

A big ruby red Pinot Noir with hints of earth and savoriness with a lingering finish. Drank this baby down with roasted chicken over rice. Very nice! — 6 years ago

Sample. Light brick red. Softer raspberries on the nose with wet stones and forest floor backed with stinky and smoked undertone. Low tannins (4/10) and moderate acidity (6/10) but balanced. Intense structure compared to the Oppenlander. Layered palate with tart raspberries, dried red cherries and freshly cracked pepper. Each note on the palate kept developing more depth with air. Medium plus body and long finish. Drink till 2024. — 9 years ago

Phil Baxter is the man. Always pure, clean, transparent winemaking. I prefer the Oppenlander vineyard but this is delicious. 6-7 years seems a sweet spot for these AV PNs. — 4 years ago

Nice wine but not in love with the Roma like I am the Oppenlander. This is nice but a little lean on body for me. It's leans Burgundian for a California. The fruits are stewed; strawberries, cherries, dry cranberries, touch rhubarb. Soft baking spices (cinnamon stick, nutmeg, vanilla), touch of brown sugar, cola, soft crushed rock powder, nice chalk, rose pedals, soft spice and a lean, elegant, higher acid finish. This is the Roma from Anderson Valley. Can't get Delectable to change it. — 10 years ago
