92 Points
Sunday, June 12, 2022 - Decanted, 1 1/2 plus hours of air. Translucent ruby. Opulent red berry nose, some complexity, earth. Lovely, concentrated on the palate, lots of red fruit buttressed by gentle tannin. Very food friendly, restrained. My fourth of five bottles and the best one yet Contrary to some other notes that had me concerned about the development of this wine, it is what the winemaker set out to accomplish (I tasted this and the '15 Shea with with Mark V. several years ago) - an elegant Pinot that will age well and drink well with food. This is just entering its prime drinking window. Give it air or another year, or both. (91-92+).
