January 3, 2020 - Cherry, forest floor, no signs of age. Finish was short lived but still very good.

October 16, 2016 - Meh. A relatively simple wine which lacked any of the complexity or beautiful nose that I've come to love about Pinot Noirs. Passable, but wouldn't purchase again.

April 22, 2016 - Tasted side by side with the 2013 WesMar Balletto.
Lighter of the two wines and perhaps more food-friendly but also sweeter. Bright cherry and just a bit tart. Better QPR at slightly over half the price of the WesMar, just not as deep or complex. -
