April 11, 2014 - A great example of changing tastes. Loved this wine a couple yrs ago when we first had it (I think I let the company, food, atmosphere, etc skew it high though), but now when drinking Pinot we're looking for something lighter. This last bottle is very tasty (and better than the 2nd bottle... variation?), but bigger than we like our Pinots these days.

August 3, 2013 - Unfortunately 1 bottle left; nice nose, fruit forward-but not fruit bomb, good balance and pleasant finish.
