Best Pinot Noir that I have tasted this year! Awesome grape juice. Went well with the signature toro plate at Morimoto’s in Napa.

Another stunner. It could be my imagination but this seems a step up from kistler. I ordered a mixed case of the 2012 and each bottle is amazing.

Well balanced, nice acids. A bit too sweet but likely due to early vintage.

Raspberry is the predominant fruit flavor nice balance between acidity and tannin. Drinking this with Hebrew National franks and fries. Great spring afternoon offering!
