A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. This is a pretty classic Siduri Pinot that I liked quite a lot. I've tried any number of both Siduri and Failla Pinots and Chards over the yrs from MarcieKeefer's Ranch. All good/solid wines. But I can't recall a KeeferRanch that has really knocked my sox off. Yet, anyway. Maybe w/ some age. This Siduri was one of the better KeeferRanch Pinots and seems to have the potential to turn into something very good. Great?? Don't know.
