April 1, 2024 - medium ruby color
Medium plus aromas of ripe red cherry/ cranberry with underlying mushroom/ soy aromas and dried herbs/ dried florals - fruit driven but very complex
Medium bodied with full palate of fresh red fruit and dried florals
Medium acidity and medium tannins with medium/ medium plus alcohol which is really not noticeable
Really nice wine - fruit driven but more complex than many CA Pinots Ive had
Drinking well now but will surely improve in 3-5 yrs with more secondary notes developing -

November 7, 2023 - 색깔은 피노누아 스럽기는 하지만 마시고 나서는 글쎄다. 오히려 포도 주스 같은 느낌.
노즈에서나 팔렛에서나 지나치게 튀는 산도가 신 맛을 좋아하는 사람도 약간 부담스러운 수준.
아주 좋게 말하면 호불호가 갈릴만한 스타일인데 한번쯤 (테이스팅 수준으로) 마셔보면 좋을 듯. -
