April 24, 2023 - Slight breaking around the edge. Still extremely flavorful with sour cherry, orange zest, and faint cola notes

February 2, 2019 - Slight bricking. Closed nose and body on open. After one hour decant, had a nose of cherry cola, and a well balanced body with a medium finish. Typical Oregon pinot characteristics. Given the decant time required for it to open up, it seems like it can age longer still.

January 1, 2017 - Opaque with an inch pour, lighter around the rim. The sip is dense, concentrated, smooth, and rounded, yet still brightly acidic and tannic. Has a delicious black cherry, blackberry, and black raspberry fruit, with the start of a caressing texture. Overall, aging well, moving toward being seamlessly integrated.
