Extended hang time produced a wine filled with blueberry, cherry, and blackberry fruit aromas mixed with hints of vanilla, anise, and a slight mineral quality. The wine is round, soft, and lovely on entry, intense and palate-coating with dense flavors of red fruit, licorice, sassafras, and cherry. This is an intense, concentrated wine with a finish that is mouthwatering, long, and rich.
We tasted this wine very recently and it's aging beautifully! Rich, deep and smooth with lots of structure, flavors of mineral, rose petals and red plum. Still has a long life ahead. yum. 94 points.

Tasted very recently on May 27th! WOW 😃 This gorgeous Pinot is intense, rich, deep, dark and creamy, with dark black cherry and chocolate flavors. It has bright beautiful acid, a taut mid palate and a graceful loooong finish. It's juicy and mouthwatering spreading black plum and marionberry across your tongue. I wish I had a humongous glass of it right now! Only a couple cases left, I recommend you snag a few bottles before it's gone! (notes by Marta)
Plum, cherry, earthy and aromatic pipe tobacco, a little toasty barrel note, iodine, mushroom, and a hint of redwood forest. It’s an interesting and complex wine. On top of this, there’s a compelling hint of the savory flavor of shoyu on the palate. Texturally, the wine is round in the mid-palate and slides into a graceful, persistent finish.Only 2 cases remaining
The bouquet is a deep, well-integrated symphony of notes – licorice, black cherry with vanilla custard, a hint of briar, hay, and redwood bark. The flavors are bold, and comforting nips of raspberry, cherry, and dark plum yield to spicy cranberry on the mid-palate. The texture is built of silky tannins akin to the lush feel of high thread count sheets on skin, and the finish lingers and lingers...

This wine is extremely complex; aromas of cranberry, blackberry, sandalwood, caramel, dark chocolate, mineral and freshly turned earth capture the senses. The structure is deep, big, taut, rich and luxurious with focused persistent tannins; there’s a nifty ying-yang here with bright fruit crispness and deep, primal, earthy, firmness. This Pinot is a good candidate for a rich steak or venison entrée.
Pretty, full, and complex. The aromas and flavors are in complete harmony. The texture, so important in Pinot noir, is round and graceful, framed by great structured depth from delicate tannins.
This wine is classic Wildcat! It opens with raspberry, cherry, fresh mushrooms, and the floral notes of rose petals. The entry is focused and lean; melding into a savory, harmonious mid-palate like red velvet cake – cherry and chocolate with crushed berries with rocks thrown on top. The tannins are fine-grained and slightly grippy. The finish of this compellingly delicious wine is very lingering.
A beautiful garnet color and big dark cherry bouquet. Rich aromas of blueberry, currant, ripe cantaloupe and slate waft out of the glass; the wine is richly textured with firm structure and an amazing array of flavors ranging from blackberry and sweet spice to white chocolate, brown rice, clay and a whisper of caraway. The finish continues with lingering flavors of pure Bing cherry juice.
The nose of this wine is really pretty with floral, perfumed notes, some spice, and dark fruit. The texture is creamy, soft and round, accented by concentrated cherry and blackberry flavors. There is also a slight minerality reminiscent of oyster shell that we’ve not seen in previous vintages of Gunsalus. The tannins are seamless, super-fine and the finish is lovely and persistent. This wine is delicious!
An enchanting and engaging classic Russian River bouquet of blackberry, cherry, blueberry and spice. Sarsaparilla, licorice and brown sugar with a rich, round, lush mouthfeel. Flavors linger on with an aromatic finish of strawberry, orange peel and rose petal. Simply delicious.
