September 27, 2021 - Holding up brilliantly. Super clean and ripe red fruits are front and center in their wine. Great spices combine with a touch of amaretto notes to produce a very nice fruit driven pinot with some added complexity. Balanced and well integrated right now. Excellent

December 24, 2012 - Not a lot going on here. A simple bottle of PN that has a fair amount of acid to go with the rich food that I had with this. Nothing memorable. Will have to try this winery again to see if this is their style.

June 6, 2012 - Fantastic. Medium red color makes it look like it will be a thin pinot, but this one is full-bodied and bursting with flavor. Lots of acidity, with tart cherries, a bit of earth and mushroom, and a smoky finish.
