November 2, 2018 - Low QPR but decent wine. On the nose lots of raisins, white pepper and some raw meat. Quite one dimensional. Slightly sticky caramel notes.

December 11, 2016 - 2016 Wine & Food Society of La Jolla Holiday Gala (The Lodge at Torrey Pines, La Jolla, CA): This medium red/garnet Pinot offers aromas of black raspberries, clove, anise and earth. Medium-bodied, fresh, seamlessly alcoholic and with soft residual tannins, it delivers flavors mirroring the nose and stays solid in the middle. Unfortunately, the wine becomes progressively more tart and closes with a medium-length, acerbic finish. While enjoyable, there is a lack of charm here. Further cellaring will not be helpful. Drink now-2019.

December 11, 2016 - Clear medium garnet color. Pleasant notes of tart red fruit, potpourri, black tea. One taster commented on some fennel or green bell pepper that reminded him of a cabernet franc. Excellent wine.

April 3, 2015 - Pretty straightforward. Nice acidity but balanced with a decent level of red fruit. Maybe a tiny bit thin but liked this.
