October 31, 2023 - Great color, good flavor, very enjoyable as it was a PnP and out of a Coravin. Drink to enjoy.

July 13, 2023 - Explosive Pinot nose. Decanted for 30 min. Over dinner, luscious crush fruit, good palate feel and a long finish. Drink or hold.

September 6, 2016 - Nice energy, restraint for a Cali pinot. Spicy. Cherry and black cherry fruit. Fairly balanced for its style. Silky

April 23, 2016 - Drank over three days and held up well. Strawberries and green apple peel. Somewhat hollow on the mid-palate. Fairly standard Cali Pinot to my taste, probably would not pay $50 again but enjoyable.
