    March 3, 2021 - Really enjoyed this bottle more than the bottle I enjoyed 6 weeks ago. Trying to drink up my older pinots! Color is starting to become a little murkier but with a large clear rim and. Ruby brickish color. Menthol and cigar box on the nose with crisp red fruit

    January 19, 2021 - I think the wine is drinking like an aged Pinot with musty, gamey, tabacco, cedar elements that evoke an aging wine. A defined clear rim with a ruby sort of color. Fruit is still present on the backend but it is still very much in balance with soft tannins. would not hold much longer.

    January 17, 2021 - A very well made Oregon PN which is running out of fruit. Worked well with a chicken and rice dinner and especially with a fruit compote dessert which added back the missing fruit. Drink up.

    September 2, 2018 - I have been fearful that this wine could tire, but that is not the case. I do not believe it will improve, but agree with some other reviews I see on cellartracker.com that the wine is in a great drink window. I continue to rate this one a little better than others...….have no explanation for that.
