this is another fine pinot from cambria, showing the winery's great price-quality ratio. words like opulent and elegant come to mind to describe intense flavors of black cherries, licorice, cola, herb tea and indian spices. it's bone dry, and also quite tannic, but you can enjoy it now with big, rich lamb and beef dishes, or a wild mushroom risotto. otherwise, it will continue to improve for at least eight years.
