Thrilling coastal Pinot with electric minerality and haunting forest floor complexity.

Wild cherry and bramble fruit dance with pine needle aromatics. Stunning mineral backbone drives through the palate - classic San Andreas Fault terroir. Forest floor earthiness builds with air. Smoke threads through the long finish. Fine-grained tannins provide structure without weight. This 2010 drinks beautifully now but rewards patience. Textbook expression of this legendary vineyard's unique geological character. Cellar through 2025.
