February 5, 2022 - Not what I was expecting based on the previous bottles. Aromas: cranberry, strawberry, tobacco, cinnamon. Palate: cranberry, strawberry, some earthy tones, vanilla, cocoa, cinnamon. Smooth, easy to drink, full body, great pinot.

July 14, 2021 - Continues to develop beautifully. Primary aromas: balsamic, salty meat, mushrooms, leather, ripe black currant. Meat stew, sage. It’s velvety, smooth, mainly earthy at this point with subtle plum.
