  Odd notes of petrol, not much fruit. Disappointing for a “Homer”

  One word, amazing! Silky smooth, extremely well balanced, medium bodied, medium finish. The fruit is bright and wonderful on the palate. The best bottle of wine I’ve had in a long time. Sorry this is my last.

  Virtual Oregon Pinot thanks to Jason (Zoom): Poured into 4 jars for transport at 5pm, drank at 8pm and over 1 hour. SIlky, gorgeous, some light vanilla. My notes show I found this crazy modern just a year ago, it seems to have calmed down significantly or there's bottle variation, or maybe this one got more air. This was still modern but not in a crazy way.

  Virtual Pinots with a Little More (Home): Dark red color. PNP, transferred into jars for transport at 4:30pm; drank a glass single blind over 2 hours plus at 8:00pm. I agree with galewskj note from a couple years ago, and I look forward to his note from tonight. This is big, and I like the description of it being a cocktail wine. It comes off rather syrupy with ripe liqueurish black fruits in a not so subtle style of pinot noir. The nose has some nice dried forest floor notes to accent things, but there is a lot of vanilla still as well to go with a mix of ripe black and red fruits. The palate is fairly full bodied, ripe blackberry, ripe black cherry, cassis, earth, leather, vanilla and lots of wood and underbrush on the finish. There's still some tannic grip on the finish too. It is a particular style that will please many. 90+pts.
