Better than my notes a year ago. Seemed more in balance, less acidic and better tasting overall. Somewhat monochromatic, but good flavor and finish makes up for that.

Very aromatic with notes of sweet, ripe red cherry and strawberry. The flavor is mostly red cherry, black cherry and raspberry with a slight green bramble / stemmy edge. Well balanced with a decent amount of tannins and acidity — somewhat crunchy. The aroma is better than the flavor IMO. It’s great, just not my favorite flavor profile. Better than the Sonoma Coast and better with air.

Great effort. Not sure it's worth the tariff though. Medium bodied. Baking spice on the palate and finish. Smooth cherry flavors. Drink now. Hints of earth on day two.

Nice pinot although a little pricey. Probably paying for the name. You can definitely see this is a notch below the high-end Kistlers. Good flavors and acid in balance, but just a notch below in intensity and depth.

Medium purplish red. A bit stemmy on the nose with some raw branches, raspberries, strawberries and hint of minerality. Medium plus acidity and great tannins (6/10) with a medium body. Very dry and coated with red berries, a bit vegetal and gravel. Long finish. Drink till 2028.
