  Pinot Blanc, Bien Nacido Vineyard
Rich tropical flavors of banana, pineapple, and melon explode on the palate. The full mouthfeel is complemented by a minerality that adds complexity. Very rich in the mouth, but with a surprisingly long, clean finish. Very refreshing.
  Pinot Noir, Bien Nacido Vineyards, Block Q
Black fruit flavors with hints of cola spice and smoke. The wine has good acidity and, despite the high percentage of new oak, enough tannin to give the wine excellent aging potential without overpowering.
  Pinot Noir, Bien Nacido Vineyards, Block Q
Rich and full in the mouth with hints of oak, anise and other exotic spices. Elegant and complex, the wine has a lingering finish of cherry and spice with well integrated tannins and refreshing acidity.

  Pinot Noir, Bien Nacido Vineyards, Hillside
Strawberry and cherry flavors meld with vanilla and spice. Despite aging in 100% new French oak, it is only after a few sips that the underlying oak comes through. With a creaminess that rounds out the acidity, the finish is long and clean.
  Pinot Noir, Solomon Hills Vineyard
Black currant and dark stone fruit are a perfect foil for the underlying earthy mushroom flavors. Good balance with refreshing acidity. The finish is long with lots of black pepper and currant.
  Pinot Noir, Vall-Foss Vineyard
Blackberry and cherry are complemented by shale and hints of smoke and tantalizing earth notes. Good structure with firm tannins. Long finish highlighted by minerals. This, our most dense wine, provides a rich and mouthfilling experience.
