March 28, 2024 - First time with this wine and it did not disappoint. Sweet spot of a Pinot. Perfect balance with fruit and tannins. Will be looking forward to adding more of this wine to the cellar.

April 16, 2023 - I had never enjoyed this wine before, but the reputation was what made me buy a few bottles.
Quite frankly, I was expecting a monstrous pinot. What I got was wonderful elegance; clearly a California style, but ratcheted back from expectation. It could be paired much more broadly than expected. It was balanced and it had NO heat at all.
Truly enjoyed. -

February 20, 2023 - Wow! Deep ruby purple.
Yes, while this clearly has some heat (quite a bit at 15.2%) it is absolutely lovely. Huge rich blackberry, white flowers. Rich, yet so balanced.
Lovely (if you like the style) YFS
