May 1, 2020 - Dark strawberry red, very slight bricking. Dusty cherry and cassis nose. Red fruit, primarily strawberry, with cassis, complex flavor profile going on. In a great window for drinking. Excellent!

February 9, 2014 - The acidity was pretty strong on opening, but subsided after an hour or so of decant. Nice red fruits/cranberry and cherry. Some earthy tones, wet forest floor maybe. Overall, I liked it, but I liked my one Murto better.

October 28, 2013 - Dark fruits with some noticeable oak and a touch of acidity. Lacked depth or a strong finish, but enjoyable. No need to wait if you have some bottles left I'd drink over the next 2 years max

August 9, 2013 - Not a bad Pinot, but lacked depth and complexity to me. Darker fruit flavors and a lot of oak and smokiness. Short finish, but above average Pinot
