This cool-climate vineyard seems to need warmth to ripen, and 2008 provided just enough to make the wine tantalizing. It’s dry, crisp and elegant, with a silky mouthfeel framing cherry, cola, bacon, cinnamon and white pepper flavors that are frankly irresistable. May not have much of a future, but it sure is good now.——S.H.(4/1/2012)—— 92

A feminine wine, soft, gentle and delicious in flavor. Feels light and silky in the mouth, with rich notes of cherries, raspberries, cotton candy, buttered cinnamon toast and sandalwood. Almost sweet, but it finishes nice and dry. Drink now–2013. ——S.H.(12/15/2010)—— 88

Brilliantly ripe in pure, clean cherries, black raspberries, red currants, cola, vanilla, buttered toast and sandalwood, this lovely Pinot Noir is backed up with crisp, cool-climate acidity. It’s very fine and classic now, and should hold for a few years. ——S.H.(12/1/2009)—— 91

An enormously opulent wine, brimming with gobs of red cherries, currants, mocha, clove, cinnamon and pepper flavors. Impresses for the lushness and integrity of the structure. Brilliant wine, just gorgeous, a real crowd-pleaser. With its recent track record, Kynsi enters the front ranks of California Pinot Noir producers.——S.H.(9/1/2008)—— 95

Riper and more full-bodied than the very good ’03, the ’04 shows an almost raisiny taste, alongside the cherries and oaky spice. Yet the wine never veers into overripeness, and remains dry and silky. Drink now. ——S.H.(5/1/2007)—— 88
