Mixed bag with Rich/ pinnacle

2012 Red Car Bybee Vineyard Rose .. very fun label.. very unspecial wine.. made from Pinot Noir.. not in the Saignee method but vin gris style?? which I thought were the same but not... good acidity but not a lot of guts, which may be the vin gris style.

2011 Red Car Sonoma Chardonnay cooler climate chard.. no malo.. very soft

2011 Red Car Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir.. soft fruit and not overly so.. likened it to a more burgundian style but still has enough fruit on the nose to know better.. tasty

2011 Radio Coteau Las Colinas Sonoma Coast Syrah  pretty purple in the glass good fruit and acidity.. almost northern rhone.. almost

2011 Radio Coteau La Neblina Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir... more expressive of fruit.. pretty..

2010 K Vintners Morrison Lane Syrah  washington state.. meaty nose and meaty texture without being hit over the head... a very feminine style from Charles Smith
