2/23/2024 - Incurable_Botrytis Likes this wine: 89 pointsMore brash than most, this is not where you turn if you’re looking for subtle and elegant Pinot. Prominate fruit right up front and a definite punch. Flavors profile is tasty and the wine has a lovely texture, however acidity is too high and leaves the drink out of balance. Still quite enjoyable, probably better suited with food, actually paired well with a little spiciness. |

12/27/2023 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 91 pointsMedium-light garnet in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, raspberries & mulberries with overtones of spices notes of nutmeg & floral notes, earthy/dusty, minerals, some herbs & a slight hint of oak/vanilla in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & raspberries with spices, minerals, some cola & a hint of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with extended airing but should continue to develop further with additional aging. |

On the palate, impressive acidity and a relatively full mouthfeel. The wine is a little reductive upon opening but it quickly comes around. Spicy with flavors of vanilla, yellow and green apple, canned pineapple, and citrus fruits. The finish is average in length. |

1/23/2023 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 92 pointsRetail $30. Under DIAM10. We were at a favorite local restaurant and I found this on the list for $34, which was essentially retail. Giddy-up. Pale straw in the glass with pineapple and lemon curd on the nose. The palate is rich, even quite rich, with intense fruit, vanilla, and a voluptuous mouthfeel. Yowza. 92 points. |

12/28/2022 - smileBD Likes this wine: 89 pointsI am not usually a fan of Pinot's and really enjoyed this one. I tasted it at the winery for a party and bought it. It was equally enjoyable the second time. It had nice structure and fruit which I don't usually find in pinot's I taste. I'm a big Napa Cab fan but would recommend this pinot which cheese, fish, poultry or really anything to eat. |

11/21/2022 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 93 pointsThe Fifth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir: Retail $68. Black, dark fruit, even plum, wonderful nose, another darker side of Pinot. A touch of earth, even pine. Wonderful on the palate as well, dark, on the verge of brooding. Nice 93 points. |

11/21/2022 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 90 pointsThe Fifth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir: Retail $68. A bit of oak and vanilla with a cherry cream pie vibe. Loads of fruit on the palate with considerable earth. The acidity doesn't really kick in until just before the finish. 90 points. |
