7/3/2021 - Benj wrote: 90 pointsColor is about as expected for a Pinot of this age - a touch orange at the rim but still quite pure, light ruby in the center. Nose: redcurrant, cherry, light caramel, cold-brewed green tea, quite brightly mouthwatering, a tiny hint of something sexy. Palate: some fairly grippy tannin up front and into the mid-palate, nicely framing the fruit, nice juicy acidity. Medium body, quite full and persistent on the finish, not exactly filigree but quite pretty and restrained. No rough edges, really nicely made wine. Probably hit its peak in the last year or two, still there, and no huge rush as it's developing some nice complexity with age, but I personally wouldn't keep this more than another 5 years, so as to enjoy the combination of mature and fresh elements. 12.8%, $40. |

11/27/2018 - StraightnoChaser Likes this wine: 90 pointsI thought it would gain some weight after a few years of cellar time but it remains a light-bodied and easy drinking wine. Mostly strawberry/raspberry with a little acidic tingle on the finish. |

3/11/2017 - Duderino Likes this wine: 92 pointsMy last bottle. Sorry to see it go. Fabulous fruit from a great vineyard, and a great vineyard manager (John Bradley). Connect with a on point winemaker (Terry Brandborg) results in a great wine. Good job guys! |

5/14/2015 - StraightnoChaser Likes this wine: 90 pointsIn 2 -3 years this will really shine. 1-1/2 hours after decanting it has bright raspberry/strawberry flavors with a short, off-dry finish. Barely perceptible note of clove and camphor in the nose. |

10/11/2013 - 422dbowlsby Likes this wine: 88 pointsPNP at wine tasting; very tight. Bright red cherries and strawberries on the palate. Light and elegant; not the smokier Willamette Valley style. Medium body and finish. |

6/26/2011 - Thirsty1 Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis is a great wine! I didn't expect to find the layers of bright red fruit, raspberry and strawberry with great precision and delecate tannin. The salmon we bought at Whole Foods complimented it perfectly. This bottle was open and drank over the course of the evening and progressively improved with time. I'm glad I have more. |
